Phezzan Protocol Rinkeby Testnet Walk-through
This is a detailed walk-through for those who are not that familiar with crypto or DeFi. If you are degen, please read our pinned Tweet. Phezzan Protocol testnet is not that different from other testnets.
1. Brief Intro about Phezzan Protocol
Phezzan Protocol will be the first perpetual DEX on zkSync 2.0. Its testnet is live on Rinkeby, and will launch on zkSync 2.0 in July 2022.
The mission of Phezzan is to Democratize Perpetual Trading for All.
Derivatives trading constitutes a significant part of financial markets. Currently over 70% of crypto trading volume comes from perpetuals trading. Perpetual DEXs currently have less than 1% of that market share. In 5 years, with the development of NFT/SocialFi/GameFi, users' assets will be on-chain and trading on DEXs will be more convenient compared to trading on CEXs.
The main features of Phezzan Protocol Mainnet V1 will include:
a) Sub-second liquidation so Phezzan can support high leverage and volatile coins
b) Cheap fees and fast execution to onboard more retail users
c) Fair trade execution, less sandwich attacks
d) Multi-collateral support, including yield bearing assets
e) Web3 native popular tokens such as $APE and $GMT
f) Friendly UI/UX: mobile support, no complicated steps, etc
g) Build a community that’s not only for professional traders
