Why Darkex?
Darkex addresses the core concerns of modern crypto participants — custody risk, opaque matching, and slow settlement — with practical engineering and transparent policies.
Security & custody
Darkex uses multi-party computation (MPC) for non-custodial key security, hardware security modules (HSMs), layered auditing, and mandatory cold-storage thresholds. Regular third-party audits and bug-bounty programs keep the platform hardened.
Transparent markets
Darkex publishes open market data feeds and orderbook snapshots. Trade matching reports and periodic proof-of-reserves statements are cryptographically signed and available in the docs.
Performance & liquidity
Engineered for low-latency order matching, Darkex supports limit, market, stop, and advanced algos. Deep liquidity pools, AMM integrations, and cross-exchange routing reduce slippage for large orders.
Governance & compliance
A compliance-forward approach balances regulatory requirements with privacy-preserving features. Darkex publishes its terms, privacy policy, and regulatory disclosures on the legal portal.
Fees & accounts
Competitive maker-taker fees with tiered discounts for high-volume traders and institutional accounts. Transparent fee schedule and on-chain withdrawal limits are visible in the docs and account settings.
