Central limit order book, concentrated liquidity AMM, and perpetual futures. 200ms block times, cross-chain atomic swaps, and MEV protection by design.
The DEX Chain is a purpose-built blockchain for decentralized exchange operations. It combines a central limit order book (CLOB) with concentrated liquidity AMM pools and perpetual futures — all on a single chain with 200ms block times.
MEV protection is built into the consensus layer, not bolted on as an afterthought. Transaction ordering is fair by design, preventing front-running and sandwich attacks that plague other DEX platforms.
Cross-chain atomic swaps allow trustless trading between assets on any Lux chain without bridges or wrapped tokens. The matching engine runs as a native precompile for maximum throughput.
Quick start using the Lux JavaScript SDK.
import { DexClient } from 'luxnet/dex'
const dex = new DexClient('https://dex.lux.network')
// Place a limit order
const order = await dex.placeLimitOrder({
pair: 'LUX/USDC',
side: 'buy',
price: '42.50',
amount: '100',
})
