What Exactly is Gridex?

The Gridex Protocol is a trading platform on the Ethereum blockchain. It uses order books instead of the Automated Market Maker (AMM) model. Furthermore, the platform is permissionless and non-custodial, consisting of a set of non-upgradable smart contracts. Gridex is using a unique Grid Maker Order Book (GMOB) model. It reduces the requirement of resources to run an order book system. This allows deployment on Ethereum with comparable gas costs to AMMs.

What is Grid Maker Order Book (GMOB) Model on Gridex?

The GMOB model is a revolutionary approach to trading. It is changing the game for traders looking for a more precise, efficient, and liquid trading experience. The rise of Automated Market Maker (AMM) model DEXes such as Uniswap has become the standard since 2020. The minimal resource consumption of the AMM model compared to the Central Limit Order Book (CLOB) model, which is mainly used in traditional exchanges, makes it easier to implement an on-chain system of smart contracts. However, the AMM model faces impermanent loss, high slippage, and inflexibility. It cannot meet the diverse needs of traders and market makers, especially for more volatile trading pairs.

Some DEXes hope to solve this issue by implementing matching engines and order books off-chain. However, it increases the risk of centralization and limits their ability to interact with other protocols effectively. Therefore, the Grid Maker Order Book (GMOB) model and the Grid Price Linear Movement (GPLM) algorithm were created to reduce resource consumption and easily implement smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain.

Firstly, maker orders in the GMOB model are limited to a narrow price range based on a percentage instead of a specific price. This allows for more precise and efficient trading. Furthermore, maker orders in the GMOB model are added to the order book and granted negative trading fees. This enhances liquidity in the market and encourages more trading activity. Once a maker order is filled, the user is required to manually execute the ‘Collect’ operation to retrieve their assets and receive their rewarded fees.
