Vision and Roadmap

Introduction to X10

X10 is a self-custody exchange committed to delivering the ultimate trading experience while enforcing on-chain trade settlement and complete transparency.

  • Self-Custody: Users retain full custody and control over their funds on X10. Exchange does not have access to user funds.

  • On-Chain Settlement and Validations: Trades are settled on the blockchain with embedded smart contract validations of the trading logic that prevent fraudulent or incorrect transactions.

  • Independent Oracle Price Providers: X10 relies on mark prices obtained from independent oracle providers to prevent potential price manipulations and ensure fair valuation of positions.

Enhanced Trading Experience
