Huge news: Waves’ decentralised exchange has undergone a major redesign and UI update, making it more user-friendly and professional-looking than ever before!
Here are the main highlights for the new DEX:
- Completely new UI, in line with the top professional platforms
- Improved app stability and performance by moving to custom-built data infrastructure and API
While other projects are still trying hard to achieve cutting-edge functionality, speed and security, we’ve already got those covered — and there’s much more to come. Here are further reasons you should only use the Waves DEX:
- Decentralised and anonymous. No middle man or difficult registration procedures. Funds are stored safely in your wallet, not on the exchange.
- Real liquidity. >$6,310,000 average 24h volume.
- Insanely low fees. <$0.01 (0.003 WAVES) per order.
- Fast and secure. Matcher nodes execute trades in near-real time, whilst the Waves-NG protocol ensures that settlement occurs on the blockchain within seconds — giving speeds similar to centralised exchanges.
- Unlimited withdrawal limits for crypto.
- Issue a token and see it on DEX straight away. All tokens launched within the Waves Platform appear on DEX immediately after issuance and can be traded instantly.
- Trading of any pairs. Easy and flexible search for a given pair, from hundreds of thousands of possibilities.
- Multiple fiat and crypto gateways. BTC, BCH, ETH, WAVES, ZEC, DASH, LTC and XMR; EUR, USD and TRY.
- Available for any device. Use DEX within your browser, or in standalone or mobile versions.
Now, let’s take a closer look at the new DEX UI.
Watchlist
All tokens issued on the Waves Platform appear on DEX right after they are created. You can trade them against any of the other 16,000 tokens issued so far, in any pair combination.
With the new Watchlist, you can find any pairs you’re interested in, quickly and easily. Here’s a full rundown of Watchlist features:
- Search by full pair, not just one token
- Add any pair to Favourites
- Market volume calculation by pair
- Sorting of pairs — all pairs are organised by volume by default, so the most liquid examples come up first
- Token ID info can be obtained with one click

Waves should be more popular than it already is being quite underrated and undervalued. So many new developments and a very fast blockchain platform, decentralized exhanges, etc. people will take notice sooner or later.
