We are thrilled to share that GMX is now listed on Coinhako!

What is GMX?

GMX is a decentralized exchange offering spot and leveraged trading on Arbitrum and Avalanche blockchains. It uses oracle-based systems for trading. Founded by an anonymous team with suspected ties to Gambit Finance and XVIX, GMX benefits from their DeFi and trading experience.

GMX, the platform's utility and governance token, rewards stakers with 30% of collected fees. Available on Arbitrum and Avalanche, it's bridgeable via Synapse Protocol. Stakers earn esGMX, Multiplier Points, and ETH (Arbitrum) or AVAX (Avalanche) fees.

There is a total supply of 9,587,010 GMX and GMX has traded for US $217.32 at its peak. 


How does GMX work?

Its perpetual swap markets allow traders to long or short major tokens with up to 30x leverage. Trades use a shared liquidity pool (GLP) and Chainlink-secured oracle prices, offering high depth.

The GMX system comprises two functional tokens:

  1. GMX for governance
  2. GLP for trading liquidity

With over $260M total value locked on Arbitrum, GMX is currently the largest dApp on this leading L2 platform.

Why does GMX stand out?

Perpetual swaps are futures contracts without expiry, used in DeFi for crypto speculation with high leverage and low upfront capital. GMX offers non-custodial perpetual swap trading with user-friendly features, low fees, and rapid transactions. Traders can long or short, while liquidity providers earn from a multi-asset pool system. 

GMX stands out due to:

  1. 1. Strong value accrual to GMX holders and liquidity providers in ETH
  2. Non-inflationary tokenomics model, avoiding "farm and dump" incentivesDespite competition from other DeFi platforms and centralized exchanges, these factors position GMX as a potential leader in derivatives trading.
