what's ADEN?
ADEN is a hybrid decentralized exchange (DEX) built on Orderly Network's white-label infrastructure, focusing on DeFi crypto futures trading. It offers perpetual futures with no initial or maintenance margins and no contract expiry, enabling seamless perpetual trading. Key features include 0% maker fees and 0.05% taker fees, alongside integrations for wallet connections and airdrop events to boost user engagement. The platform prioritizes the BNB Chain ecosystem, providing an on-chain demo trading environment powered by Open BNB Chain. ADEN serves as a utility hub for the BugsCoin (BGSC) token, which functions similarly to BNB by offering trading fee discounts, access to the ADEN Launchpool, and benefits for NFT holders. This integration aims to create value within the BugsCoin ecosystem through low-cost, high-performance trading. ADEN supports derivative products based on major indices like NASDAQ and S&P, and hosts trading competitions with significant prize pools to attract volume. Its design emphasizes stability and fairness, with measures to filter abusive behaviors in events like airdrops.
