DeGate product update

DeGate pays special attention to the security of the protocol and is designed in a way that no malicious actor can do any evil, while users’ funds are safe at all times. Placing the protocol’s safety as the key priority, DeGate has been running a $1.11 million Bug Bounty with Immunefi. This November, DeGate has redeployed the Mainnet Beta protocol, improving the security and features of the protocol. The Mainnet Beta protocol has been redeployed with the ability to upgrade the smart contract with a time delay. The exact time delay is being determined, but should be a substantial period of time in the region of 30 days or more. Read more details on DeGate Medium.

We thank all the users who have provided us with feedback to make DeGate a better and more efficient decentralized trading protocol. Taking into account the suggestions from traders, we have made a number of important updates in October.

Specifically, the new user onboarding process has been significantly improved, which now allows traders to enter order information in order to place orders directly. After a quick completion of initialization, traders can immediately place orders with funds in their wallet without any wait. Users can now view order details from the order list area on DeGate trading page. It is also now possible to reorganize and simplify all the information in the confirm order window.

One of the frequent pieces of feedback provided by users was that the term ‘Pre-auth gas fee’ is not clear. We have renamed it to ‘Max Gas fee’ with more details available on how the Max Gas fee is derived and how users can customize the number of trades. Another notable modification that was implemented following users’ feedback was improving the BUY and SELL interface. Now, the button for switching between BUY and SELL is changed to a tab control to create a visual distinction from the order placement button. One more improvement that has been implemented thanks to users’ feedback was removing the input box of the price in the Market Order.

DeGate highly appreciates your feedback, this helps to create an Order Book DEX that is convenient and efficient to use for all of you- DEX traders. Please share any suggestions that you have to DeGate evangelists via official DeGate social media channels.
