USDX diversifies risk effectively by being reserved 1:1 with multiple stablecoins, mitigating the risks associated with reliance on a single currency source. Compared to stablecoins issued by a single entity (like USDT or USDC), USDX's value is not severely impacted by legal, financial, or operational issues of a single stablecoin's backing entity. This diversified reserve strategy enhances the overall system's stability and resilience against external shocks.

2. Enhanced Stability

A basket of currencies mechanism, by combining multiple assets, balances and stabilizes value, akin to the International Monetary Fund's Special Drawing Rights (SDR). This method reduces the impact of any single asset's value fluctuation on USDX stability, offering users a more stable medium for value storage and transactions. In market volatilities, this design maintains USDX value stability, providing a more reliable trading environment for users.

3. Increased Trust and Transparency

Relying on a 1:1 reserve with multiple stablecoins, USDX's value anchoring mechanism becomes more transparent, as it depends on several market-accepted and verified stablecoins. This mechanism ensures USDX's stability and value not solely on the reputation of a single issuer but on the collective credit of multiple stablecoins, thereby increasing user trust in USDX's stable value.

4. Promotion of Market Efficiency

USDX's design promotes liquidity and efficiency across markets. Users can easily convert between different stablecoins and USDX, enhancing the overall cryptocurrency market's liquidity, reducing transaction costs, and improving market efficiency.

5. Support for a Wider Range of Application Scenarios

With enhanced stability and trust, USDX is more readily accepted across various application scenarios, including cross-border payments, decentralized finance (DeFi) projects, and smart contract executions. This broad applicability further expands USDX's use cases, promoting its adoption and acceptance globally. Stable and low-cost transaction currencies can also become the preferred choice for automated payments and transactions between future AI Agent or AGI applications.

In summary, USDX's design philosophy exhibits superior characteristics over stablecoins issued by single entities, especially in terms of risk diversification, stability enhancement, trust increase, and promotion of market efficiency. This stablecoin mechanism, based on a basket of currencies concept, offers a more sound and reliable medium for value storage and transactions in the stablecoin market.

Version Changes

In an era of rapid development in AI technology and the continuous maturation of blockchain technology, OpenEX recognizes that technology and architecture will undergo continuous and rapid iteration. This iteration is not only an inevitable result of technological progress but also a necessary process for the project to adapt to market demands, community feedback, and emerging technology trends. Therefore, we clearly state here that the content of the OpenEX whitepaper will be updated and iterated as necessary with the evolution of technology, market dynamics, and community opinions.

We commit to following principles of openness and transparency for any iteration of the whitepaper, ensuring that all updates can be communicated to our community members, users, and partners timely and clearly. Our update process will include, but is not limited to, optimization of the technical architecture, adjustments to the Tokenomics model, expansion of application scenarios, and improvement of the governance model.

While the specific technical implementations and project architecture of OpenEX may evolve over time, our core vision of providing open, transparent, and efficient trading services will remain unchanged. We believe that this is the cornerstone that enables OpenEX to stand out in the competitive blockchain field and continue to deliver value to users.

Through this flexible and responsible approach, OpenEX is committed to becoming an ecosystem that can grow with technological advancements and community needs, while ensuring that our vision, values, and commitments to users remain consistent. We welcome and encourage the participation and feedback of the community to jointly shape the future of OpenEX.
