Multi-Currency Support
ClearX is designed to support a wide range of fiat currencies, enabling users to engage in forex trading seamlessly on a decentralized platform. By tokenizing fiat currencies, ClearX facilitates currency trading directly on the blockchain, enhancing accessibility and efficiency for users worldwide.
How Multi-Currency Support Works on ClearX
ClearX utilizes tokenized representations of traditional fiat currencies, which are minted as ERC-20 tokens on EVM-compatible blockchains. These fiat tokens are backed by reserves or issued through decentralized mechanisms that ensure their stability and reliability. Users can trade, hold, or provide liquidity using these tokens.
Supported Currencies
ClearX supports a variety of major fiat currencies, including but not limited to:
USD (US Dollar)
EUR (Euro)
GBP (British Pound Sterling)
JPY (Japanese Yen)
AUD (Australian Dollar)
CHF (Swiss Franc)
This diverse range allows users to trade popular currency pairs such as EUR/USD, GBP/JPY, and USD/JPY, mirroring traditional forex markets with the added benefits of blockchain technology.
Adding New Currencies
ClearX is built to be scalable, allowing for the addition of new fiat tokens as the platform grows. The process involves:
Assessment and Validation: Ensuring the legitimacy and stability of the fiat representation.
Partnerships with Reliable Issuers: Collaborating with decentralized projects or entities that provide secure fiat-backed tokens.
Community Governance: Utilizing ClearX’s native token (CLX) for voting on the inclusion of new currencies.
