🔹 What is intent X
Intent X is a Perp without the need of liquidity provider unlike GMX
It's intent-based trading architecture allows market makers to act as liquidity for traders
Allowing cheaper fees & more tradable asset
Without dependent of LPer values goes to token holder
🔹 How does it work
An intent is a trader's ability to express their desire to trade a position on IntentX
1️⃣ Express intent to open/close trade
2️⃣ Request for Trade or Request for Close
3️⃣ Market maker hedges position and accepts request
4️⃣ Trade opened or closed
🔹Why trade here instead ?
✅ More pairs to trade
✅ Deeper liquidity ( get up to 60x leverage )
✅ Lower fees
✅ Seamless execution
✅ Programmatic guarantees and security
✅ Great UI/UX + Account Abstraction
Most importantly for speculators
✅INTX Trade to Earn Incentives 💸
🔹 If there is no LP, who are trader trading agasint
Market makers!
instead of peer-to-pool model like GMX
trades in intentx are directly peer-to-peer with market maker's help
This allows listing pair without boostraping liqudity from public with liquidity mining incentives
🔹 Advantage & Disadvantage of this design
✅ There is no LP, more protocol values goes back to token holder or trader ( trade to earn, referral emission etc )
❌ If there no LP users are trading agasint market makers, and if its not profitable why would market maker stay there?
Comparing to other perps it's not really a simple better or worst design answer,
The approach is different, utilizing MM enable more pairs quickly & effectively ( depending on MM quality as well )
In the end of the day, perp dex is about how much trading volume can they attract
- Expanding on trading vol in case u don't perp onchain
As a trader, as long as u are happy with the UIUX, trading fee and the spread ( + possibly trading incentive ) u would trade there
as a on-chain perp the spread is around 0.1% &
gains spread is around 0.04%
Looking into the tokenomics
There are 2 tokens $INTX & $xINTX
TLDR if u don't stake INTX into xINTX
u don't can't get any protocol value
the uilities of $xINTX are
100% of revenue distributed to xINTX stakers
Long-term increasing share of protocol through the exit fee mechanism
Increased Trader Incentives & Referral Program Rewards
Access to unique strategies and products (Solver LP)
xINTX staking machanics
INTX is staked to xINTX 1 to 1
Dynamic unstaking machanism, where the earlier u stake the more xINTX is charged and redistributed into the pool
The longer your xINTX is staked, the higher the reward multiplier is
🔹In conclusion
xINTX machanics wise is designed to incentivize people to stake, earn protocol fee + early unstaker fee.
The some game theory between when to unstake for the most optimal tokens & price
It's TGE & Valuation is unsure yet. will update when they have list the info
