Hello, great question. LXDX COO here and happy to provide some answers.

We differentiate on a few key areas:

1 - Team
The founders are from a combination of the traditional finance world, professional trading shops, and Silicon Valley. We've worked at Tower, DRW, Jump, SpaceX, and Google Ventures companies, to name a few.

2 - Technology
LXDX is built on our own custom-tuned hardware. Coded from scratch in C++. We can push orders through the entire network in single-digit microseconds. It's bulletproof.

3 - Ethos
We believe in and operate under transparency and operate according to all applicable regulations. We don't secretly trade on our own platform or sell your order flows to high-frequency shops. We take a "seriously, don't even try it" attitude with respect to wash trading, pumps, and other market abuses.

4 - Products
We are launching derivatives based on actual crypto underlyings, and not just BTC like some competitors. These are powerful for getting leveraged exposure to crypto assets, both to speculate and to hedge. If you have a model that tells you that ETH is going down in the next five minutes, trading only spot doesn't let you capture that, certainly not with precision. Also we don't do auto de-leveraging and we don't do socialized losses.

LXDX is playing the long game, but not forgetting the near term. We're providing great products that nobody else has and operating within the law and collecting the proper licenses globally. We've built technology far in advance of what is needed immediately to be able to gracefully scale with the massive growth that's coming to the ecosystem in 2019 and beyond.

Hope to have your support!
