Subscribe to our newsletter

Dubai-based digital asset trading platform tanX reported a significant milestone in Q2 2024, processing $1 billion in spot trading volume across 3 million transactions, reflecting a 70% increase from the previous quarter. The platform’s success is set against a backdrop of rising interest in decentralised trading solutions, particularly in the wake of FTX’s collapse, which has driven traders towards non-custodial and safer methods of executing trades and storing assets.

tanX, operating as a decentralised exchange (DEX) on Ethereum, emphasises compliance, regulation, and transparency, catering to institutional clients through specialised liquidity lines. tanX bridges the two models of decentralised and centralised exchanges (CEXs), allowing CEXs to integrate its non-custodial trading solutions while maintaining their existing user experience, underscoring the platform’s innovative approach in a regulatory stringent environment.
