is the team of x9 the same of XSN?
The X9 team founded the Stakenet Project.
XSN's solution is capable of effectively solving the Lightning Network's current liquidity problems
Here's the MNs running a DEX that natively executes instant BTC/LTC swaps!

Imagine when USDT (Tether) implements Lightning to their chain. You'll be able to tether up in seconds whenever you see a massive BTC pump. As this will be available as a phone app, you'll be able to tether up while on the go. Absolutely mind blown!!
can't this already be done now without XSN? ''theterng up in seconds''
Sure it can, but ONLY on centralized exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, Bittrex etc.
This is a decentralized way to tether up. BIG difference.

How? With Masternodes? But they are centralized.. masternodes make the coin centralized
Masternodes is NOT centralized, as they are hosted by different people all over the world. You don't get a more decentralized setup than this, as if one node goes down, another one takes over in seconds.

I'd love to see actual trading bots executing orders on the DEX itself. Since we'll have a DEX aggregator combining DEX order books from other DEX's (such as Komodo), liquidity will be of no problem if you want to do some arbitrage. Pretty exciting to see how it plays out
As far I understand... only orders from decentralized exanges can be taped into XSN... this thing can not compete with the liquidity provided by centralized exanges
You can arbitrage trade from the DEX straight to Binance. Meaning you can buy from the DEX, and sell on Biannce for a profit in mere seconds.
Centralized exchanges will be beaten, just a matter of time.
