Core Advantages of ADEN
🔶 Ultra-Fast Trading
The platform adopts a high-performance matching engine that supports high concurrency and low-latency trading, ensuring that user orders are executed quickly and that trading remains stable and smooth even during periods of extreme market volatility.
🔶 Efficient Capital Utilization
The order book model provides extremely tight spreads. Liquidity providers can concentrate funds in high-fill-probability price ranges, significantly improving capital utilization and ensuring transparent market depth.
🔶 Multi-Chain Compatibility & Seamless Deposits/Withdrawals
Supports USDT deposits and withdrawals across major blockchains, including Ethereum, BSC, and Solana. Users can freely choose their preferred network. Cross-chain communication and asset security are enabled through advanced Vault contracts and the LayerZero protocol.
🔶 Secure Fund Management & Auto-Risk Balancing
All filled orders and balance changes are written on-chain in real time, ensuring operational transparency and credibility. User assets are custodied by audited smart contracts. Through LayerZero cross-chain communication and Vault auto-balancing mechanisms on each chain, ADEN ensures both fund safety and efficient settlement.
🔶 Flexible Position & Margin Modes
ADEN offers diversified position mechanisms, supporting both hedge mode and one-way mode to meet different risk preferences and trading strategies. Users can choose between cross margin and isolated margin, optimizing capital efficiency with cross margin or achieving precise risk isolation and management with isolated margin—delivering a highly customizable trading experience.
🔶 Layered Architecture & High-Performance Scalability
At the current stage, trade execution and settlement data are recorded on an L2 chain in real time, balancing efficiency with on-chain verifiability.
ADEN will introduce an L3 data recording layer, dedicated to fully on-chain order and matching data. This architecture simplifies complex consensus mechanisms while maintaining high throughput, ensuring data immutability and traceability.
