Digitex Futures is a commission-free cryptocurrency futures exchange with a rapid-fire one-click trading ladder and high leverage. Traders can buy and sell perpetual swap futures contracts on Bitcoin against the US Dollar and pay no transaction fees on any trades. The company will be adding extra markets such as Ethereum and Litecoin soon after the mainnet launch on April 27. Commission-free trading is made possible by using its own cryptocurrency, called the DGTX token, as the native currency of the futures exchange. Instead of covering costs by charging transaction fees on trades, Digitex meets the operational costs of running the futures exchange by creating and selling a small number of new DGTX tokens each year.
What is DAG? In more traditional blockchains, the host provides the food/drinks (i.e resources) for this party. And when the guests arrive, the amount of resources can only accommodate so many people, the portions are small and then everything eventually runs out and the party ends. Think Constellation DAG like a potluck (a party where everyone brings food/drinks). With every added guest (node to the network), the more resources the party has to keep going. This is the nature of Constellation, a distributed system that scales horizontally. Is Constellation a Blockchain? Not exactly. Although inspired by the principles of decentralization, many standard blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum face scalability issues. This is why the next, generation of decentralized networks such as Hashgraph, IOTA, and Constellation have turned to DAG. What is a Microservice? “Microservices” is an approach to application development in which a large application is built as a suite of modular services. Each module supports a specific business goal and uses a simple, well-defined interface to communicate with other sets of services. Uber, for example, is not a singular app purse. It is a unified app which means it is a single interface that brings together their driver app, their rider app, and their corporate team app.
