Flare, the layer 1 blockchain for data, is excited to announce that the SparkDEX team has decided to deploy its advanced defi hub on the network, which includes an AMM and perps protocol. By utilizing Flare’s established data protocols for decentralized data access, SparkDEX can achieve its goals.

The SparkDEX DeFi Hub is a derivative of the popular QuickSwap decentralized exchange on Polygon, with the backing of the QuickSwap team. It features a high-performance DEX alongside an advanced on-chain perpetual platform, enabling trades with leverage of up to 100x. In the future, the SparkDEX team will incorporate more advanced AI components and DeFi strategies as they diligently work towards executing their roadmap and fulfilling their vision.

A portion of the SparkDEX total token supply has been set aside as an airdrop to show appreciation for the platform’s early participants. A portion of this will be made accessible to current QuickSwap users. Flare and SparkDEX are set to join the network selector menu on QuickSwap’s website.

Anita Ng, BD Representative at SparkDEX, comments: “As a high-performance DeFi ecosystem looking to harness the most advanced infrastructure available in the industry, the SparkDEX team strategically selected Flare to leverage their enshrined data protocols. Flare’s comprehensive approach to data management sets its ecosystem apart as the go-to blockchain for data, which will support further innovation and data-driven decision-making on SparkDEX. This marriage of bleeding-edge DeFi with data interoperability from Flare will make a powerful combination.”

The V2 Perpetuals Exchange, set to launch on SparkDEX DeFi Hub later in July, will be their offerings’ highlight. It will leverage the upgraded Flare Time Series Oracle (FTSO) to provide real-time price feeds, protecting against front running and false liquidations. With support for up to 100x leverage and various order types, including a one-of-a-kind trailing stop loss feature, traders can effectively safeguard their positions.

SparkDEX’s Chain Abstraction mechanism combines the leading perpetual DEXES from 12 different chains, such as Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon. It cleverly handles order settlements by carefully choosing the best route and rate for every trade, ensuring efficiency. With the integration of Flare, LayerZero’s powerful message-passing network now offers users an abstraction mechanism that guarantees optimal execution on their preferred blockchain. The DEX plans to introduce perpetual futures positions on digital assets, with commodities and forex included once the necessary data feeds are active on Flare’s trusted oracle, the FTSO.

SparkDEX V3 DEX is now live at https://SparkDEX.ai/. It offers access to a wide range of crypto trading pairs and highly competitive liquidity incentives. The platform also features a generous revenue-sharing model, sharing DEX fees with token stakers. SparkDEX V3 DEX provides comprehensive liquidity management for a seamless trading experience. With the introduction of the Flare network’s latest DeFi emissions program, users can now enjoy industry-leading rewards on the wFLR-sFLR and wFLR-USDX pools, and there are even more exciting additions to look forward to in the near future.

“After the recent community approval of the new Flare DeFi emissions program and the integration of LayerZero V2, the launch of SparkDEX is another huge milestone in the rapid advancement of Flare’s DeFi ecosystem. We look forward to seeing significant liquidity inflows into their pools and how that will accelerate the growth of DeFi on Flare. The launch of their perps DEX is going to be particularly exciting” said Flare Co-Founder Hugo Philion.
