All operations concerning funds require authorizations from a user’s account and no one else can embezzle their assets. Additionally, the DeGate smart contract does not have an admin key, thus making it impossible for the node operator to steal users’ funds.
As DeGate is a decentralized exchange that uses ZK-Rollup technology. Performing a deposit and withdrawal is equivalent to utilizing an L2 bridge.
- 1.First, users need to pay gas costs from a L1 wallet when depositing assets into DeGate.
- 2.Users are also required to pre-authorize gas fees when placing an order. However, they only need to pay the gas fees and transactions handling fees as the Taker of a filled order.
- 3.Gas fees are also required for operations such as assets withdrawals and transfers, resetting Asset Private Key, permissionless token listing, and adding trading pairs.
As an L2 transaction protocol, DeGate needs to regularly submit off-chain transactions data to the smart contract. Initiating such transactions consumes gas on L1, which is why DeGate charges gas fees for users’ operations. This is similar to initiating transactions on other L2s and paying gas fees accordingly.
Because DeGate enables orders and transactions to be completed off-chain, and only sends packaged information on-chain for zero-knowledge proof, which is different from traditional DEXs where every order and transaction is initiated and completed on-chain. This saves a lot of sas fees, and does not depend on the confirmation time of the L1 blockchain network.
DeGate supports all ERC20 assets issued on the network where it is deployed, such as assets on Ethereum.
In the future, we will adjust the quote tokens based on market needs.
Users can access all the functions on DeGate without holding DG. DG is a governance token that allows its holders to participate in proposal voting.
