What is 0x (ZRX)?

0x is an open source protocol. 0x enables peer to peer exchange of assets on Ethereum blockchain. The 0x protocol was designed as a standardized efficiency system to exchange ERC-20 tokens of various DApps.

0x is not entirely an off chain or an on chain protocol. It utilizes both approaches for best results. The off-chain relayers and Ethereum smart contracts facilitate decentralized exchange and also provide an open order book. ZRX is the native cryptocurrency of the 0x protocol. It is used as a payment form to pay off-chain relayers. ZRX token also acts as a governance token for 0x protocol upgrades.

Why Do We Need 0x Protocol?

0x is designed to enable trustless exchange. Each trade on 0x protocol is an atomic swap. It means the transfer of value occurs at the same time on both party’s end. No counterparty risk is involved. The transactions can also be processed outside of the blockchain. They are much faster and the transaction fees are much lower.

What is 0x (ZRX) Token?

ZRX token is the native crypto coin of the 0x protocol. It gives developers access to open standards for exchange of assets. It also helps in the governance of 0x protocol. ZRX also plays an important role in deciding the distribution of voting rights. The more ZRX a person owns, the larger his influence over proposed changes in 0x protocol.
