Extended Exchange (N/A)

Extended Exchange crypto (prev. X10) is a Starknet-settled hybrid perp DEX that combines off-chain order matching with on-chain validation and settlement, offering up to 100x leverage on crypto and TradFi assets with CEX-level speed and full self-custody. It is building toward a unified margin system with native lending, spot markets, wallet integrations, and ultimately an EVM-compatible network where global margining is embedded at the base layer.

Extended Exchange DEX plans to gradually expand its product offering to parallel leading CEXs and make DeFi trading more accessible and usable for everyday retail users, using the following technical architecture:

• On-chain Settlement: A trustless execution model where every Extended trade is settled and validated on Starknet, with on-chain logic preventing invalid actions and oracle-powered pricing protecting against manipulation;
   
• Off-chain Trading Infrastructure: A high-performance execution layer where order matching and risk management run off-chain to deliver CEX-level speed, low latency, and efficient trade processing while still settling securely on-chain;
   
• Funding Payments: A recurring fee mechanism that hourly transfers payments between longs and shorts based on the funding rate to keep Extended’s perpetual prices closely aligned with the underlying spot market, with charges applied only to positions that remain open at the funding interval.

🪙 Extended Exchange token: As of January 2026, there is no disclosed info concerning the native token of the project. However, our team considers that it will be mainly used for powering governance proposals. Moreover, there is an ongoing Extended Exchange Points farming campaign, where users can engage with the platform by trading and providing liquidity. We assume this campaign will potentially result in an Extended perp DEX airdrop.
