I think there is some misunderstanding about the DEX that we plan to implement. The purpose of our DEX is to allow cross-chain swaps as well as a local platform to interact with centralized exchanges. This prevents access by a third party to your coins as in the case of storing them at a exchange.
Our DEX is NOT the same as XCP, NXT or colored coins implementations.
Oh that sounds a lot more interesting. Can all chains be swapped between each other or just certain ones? I'd love to stop using poloniex and bittrex but I have to because I want to do cross chain trades.
