e Blocknet and NIX teams are excited to announce our new partnership! NIX is creating a first of its kind, chain to chain privacy centric communication protocol, establishing itself as a DEX Manager. We are happy to announce that the very first DEX to be incorporated into NIX will be the Block DX. The integration of the Blocknet protocol into NIX will enable privacy based DEX trading. There will be a 0.25% transaction fee for Blocknet nodes that control the atomic swaps, and 0.25% transaction fee for NIX Service Nodes that control the private Zerocoin transaction in between swaps. In total, a 0.5% transaction fee is made via each atomic swap through NIX, a small fee to pay for private swaps. Apart from earning transaction fee’s through swaps, NIX Service Nodes will also earn partial block rewards.
