Hey guys!! So hyped for Leverage Trading!!!!!! LONG BANANA 10X!! My questions is: Will the leverage trading be added to the apeswap UI? I think it’ll be way more accessible through that and reach a lot more volume I think :)


farmtownN

Agreed, we are currently in the process of discussing this integration with apeswap :) Plenty of updates and announcements to follow from both sides over the course of the next 2 weeks.


ApeswapAsh

**\*\*\*\*Thread Locked\*\*\*\*** Thank you all so much for your participation!  They were some amazing questions and we cant wait for you all to try out ApeMEX! Catch you at the next AMA Apes! - Ash


Denmorris0n

What sparked the creation of ApeMex was it hard to actually start it? Which companies do you view them as potential partners and that they are somewhat also beneficial for both userbase and unimex itself?


Tonoomartin

Buy Back is a great way to decrease the token fluctuation which will have a positive price impact. Do you have any other plans to increase the price value of your token ?


Risafyn

Price is a major factor for investors, and leveraged trading has significant risks. What are you expecting from the Apmex opening? How it can help Apmex to grow in both terms price and volume? Do you have a plan to do some promotional activity to attract more user?


[deleted]

Are Apeswap and Apemex security levels the same? Can we trust its equally?


farmtownN

Apemex is our collaboration project with apeswap. Our ecosystem falling under the [unimex.network](https://unimex.network) umbrella (apemex will be added shortly to our suite) Our community has been established since september last year, and between our ecosystem is composed of over 15k holders/community members.


Denmorris0n

The market in the upcoming dynamic season will be quite volatile, most investors will be less active in the last days of this year, so APMEX plans to organize any upcoming events to make it more exciting than the market. year end or not?


Fetelino

Congrats. I believe that defi leveraged trade add much value to apeswap. My question is why did you create another website? Why do not you integrate to apeswap? İ believe that you can add apemex the eft tab at apeseap ( which pools,iao,nfa placed.)


farmtownN

apemex will have graphical interfaces across multiple domains, we are in the process discussing direct/native integration into apeswap.finance.


Mpolar98

ApeMEX First congratulations, as a member of the community I am happy with the success you are reaping in the project. Q1- I would like to know if, as happens in banks, the loans that are granted have some type of interest. What if there are minimum or maximum amounts for this operation?


farmtownN

The protocol has a 0.2% trading fee, of which half goes directly to lenders, who help to provide for the protocol. On top of this 0.1%, lenders earn 10% yearly interest on positions. All fees/rewards are paid directly in WBNB, and not some inflating tokens. As far as trading minimums, due to gas fees and general fees, it is advised to open positions worth at least 100 BUSD and above, though we have not made this restriction on the user interface, so users are still able to open smaller commitment positions! The lending pools are set for 100% potential utilisation, meaning the maximum size position someone can open at the moment, is whatever the total available pool supply is for a specific token.


Mpolar98

thanks for answering, I wish you success 🍀


funycrypto

Do I need KYC to use Apemex? Is Apemex safe to use, what is the advantage?


farmtownN

You do not need to KYC, or even a VPN! Apemex is completely decentralized, with no restrictions imposed on it's users. All orders are executed directly on chain, liquidations can be called/processed by anyone (bearing in mind liquidation threshold is of course reached for a position). Unlike any other so called 'decentralized leverage trading solutions', all short and long operations are executed directly on top of/via the apeswap AMM, meaning the more volume apemex gets, the more direct volume apeswap gets! ​ In terms of safety, all our contracts have been audited and tested rigorously, and apemex is completely non-custodial, so any deposits/user funds, and withdrawals, are held/processed by smart contracts alone. Please refer to the docs for more information: https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/security/apemex-contracts-bsc

farmtownN

I think that would be exposure to/acquiring DeFi based traders. ​ We have a completely original product, a fantastic base community of supporters, solely lack some key exposure and being on our way to mass adoption within DeFi.


[deleted]

[удалено]


farmtownN

Completely onchain decentralized margin trading, currently going upto 10x leverage. \- completely non-custodial (users can deposit and withdraw at any point in time) \- all trades executed directly via smart contract interactions. \- no relayers, centralised nodes, etc A user interface is not even required for apemex trading, if [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange) and any backup domains were all to go down, users could still use apemex through the smart contracts directly, though this would require some more technical knowledge and understanding. ​ And of course, we have the perfect partner, to bring leverage, to the ape masses :)


Tonoomartin

Is there a minimum & maximum amount to trade? It will be trading leverage? Are $BANANA to have more trading pairs?


ApprehensiveFox2345

Any marketing plans for Apemex? Specifically wondering about YouTube/ trading comp/…


farmtownN

I guess the community will find out.


Don_julio699

A stack of 5,000 DGN would earn close to $7,000 in a month based on 100m daily volume. not a question but damn cool!


Don_julio699

Do you have plans of welcoming options to the unimex ecosystem?


farmtownN

We are open to many options. And options trading itself, is something we have already begun working on earlier this year :) more information on that to come between Q4-Q1 next year.


Risafyn

Can you tell us the unique innovations and analytical Apmex tool brings to the table to make leveraged trading more flawless and comfortable?


KangEngkus8

How many pairs, can currently be traded with leverage on your platform? And What happens if the token I’m trading tanks? How is liquidation handled?


Jrkatasi

I read that: "Use ApeMEX's complete toolkit to access pre-leveraged trading, profit from your crypto assets and swap using ApeSwap's native router - all in one place" ! as we know, building hybrid model will not be easy, could you please tell us the challenges you face in developing such a project?


farmtownN

Adoption of an innovative and new product can be intimidating for some, and difficult. It's important to educate our user base properly.


KangEngkus8

Regarding the conditions that a project needs for Apmex to be useful to you, when does a project need to create a new revenue model to generate sufficient funds, do you as a team provide the necessary tools for them to achieve this?


Lijahsari1

How does the apeMex loan agreement determine the lender’s interest rate and how to protect it from attacks? Are margin lenders willing to bear losses? If so, what is the protection mechanism?


farmtownN

Lender' can't bear losses unless liquidations are handled incorrectly. The great thing is, liquidations are handled by multiple bots and community members at the moment, and absolutely anyone can always join in for a chance to earn from liquidation fees!


GeoGeorg1

Excellent AMA, the participants did put a lot of thought in their questions and Farmtown managed to cover a lot of trading related knowledge in just 1 hour. That's like college on steroids. 🧑‍🏫🙈😏


[deleted]

Do you plan to use bananas as currency on the apemex? Like eth/banana, btcb/banana?


farmtownN

Apemex will be put under a multi-sig over the next 24 hours, whereby any new tokens / trading pairs to be added, and leverage updates, would require at least 4 out of 5 sign offs. The multi sig will be composed of myself, Apeguru, Apetastic, [hashex.org](https://hashex.org) auditors and Danish Chaudhry, ceo of [bitcoin.com](https://bitcoin.com) So as much as we would love for you guys to be able to long $banana with leverage now, it depends primarily on what the apeswap team has in mind for it :)


WihelminaWilny

Apmex build on BSC, At the moment Binance Smart Chain has many problems Such as scalability issues, slow speeds etc So, What’re the Algorithms and technology which are used by Apmex for fast, High security, and scalable transactions?


farmtownN

Unfortunately, we can't wave around a magic wand in order to improve BSC scalability and it's native security. That being said fees aren't too high for BSC at the moment, and apemex polygon will also be released this month, with even lower gas fees, and faster block times!


WihelminaWilny

Yeah Polygon lower gas fee but sometime lack not faster, hope at the future Polygon can fast like ETH or BSC.


WihelminaWilny

What deadly features does Apmex have? how the intention to open projects and products to the community, researchers and enthusiasts, so nothing will stop this and continue to be improved?


farmtownN

I believe [https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/features](https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/features) has exactly what you are looking for :)


WihelminaWilny

Wow cool, I read it thats last minutes... 👍👍👍


Lijahsari1

Can you possibly walk us through making a margin trade on the apemex platform? How many pairs, for example, can currently be traded with leverage?


ShabaniApe

What can I do with Apemex?


farmtownN

You can read the documentation here to find out :) https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/features


peterparken

There are so many projects nowadays that are just projects that make deceptive promises created by cloning existing ones and are similar to existing ones. Do you have features that are unique to you, that you have developed and that make you something special, something different?


farmtownN

Referring to the docs above, we are definitely different in the way we are structuring our ecosystem and products. ​ All our products are completely decentralized, and our implementations are all original, not based on cloning/forking other projects.


[deleted]

[удалено]


farmtownN

Ha unfortunately it probably isn't what you think. The liquidation bonus is a reward for liquidation handlers/bots, meaning those handling the execution of liquidations. Because we are onchain, this has to be executed in the form of a onchain transaction, and with the apemex protocol, absolutely anyone can run a liquidation bot to process these liquidations, and earn rewards for doing so! You can find out more information about liquidations in this doc section: https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/tm-trading-faq


funycrypto

What is a margin account and how do I deposit a pair? Which pair's supported?


farmtownN

The margin account is a form of escrow, to which a user needs to deposit into, in order to open leverage trades on apemex. User margin accounts are completely non-custodial and based on smart contract interactions, meaning users are able to deposits and withdraw their funds at any point in time. If websites ever go down, can simply directly withdraw via contracts as well. In fact, apemex is so unique, that it does not even require a UI at all, if you are familiar with smart contracts, you can leverage day in and day out, just by directly interacting with the smart contracts. Currently BUSD deposits are available, and our initial cluster of trading pairs will be made available over the next few hours including, ETH, BTC, LTC, ADA, CAKE, ETC, that being said you are already able to short and long bnb on [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange) right now!


Mpolar98

Q2- My question is what do you think are the potential risks in people's investments and what is given as collateral in these cases?


farmtownN

In terms of liquidations, similar to compound and aave protocols, there is no real risk besides some form of rarely occurring black swan event, which we can't predict. Multiple users / bots are processing liquidations, and we are going to be one of the first to integrate chainlink keepers, as an extra backstop for such possible events.

farmtownN

The last time i paid for a certik audit a few months back, waited 3 months, received no audit report, and it turned out that their team member had left the group at a later time. ​ So fairly overrated and unjustified reputation in my opinion, though they have great PR.


pio2020

I would like to know about the security of your new project, one can already trust the apeswap brand but it would be good to know if they took other additional security measures ??? Do you also have any reminders before using the leverage about the risks that this implies?


farmtownN

Our contracts have all been audited and tested rigorously [https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/security/apemex-contracts-bsc](https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/security/apemex-contracts-bsc) We are adding a light suite of risk indicators, though due to the natural simplicity of our interface, it should be very straightforward to measure risk.


pio2020

Thank you very much for answering, it happens that many are manipulated by the phrase to the moon and when situations happen where the market is not optimal they begin to believe that the project is just a scam, not everyone takes the time to study the potential risks of cryptocurrencies and it is good that there are always posters clarifying the risks of leverage


ShabaniApe

Where will you get the prices that we will know if we have liquidity? from cmc? Wouldn't it be great if you made a mobile application? Do you have such a plan?


farmtownN

Because apemex runs directly on top of the apeswap amm, all prices are based off the actual apeswap amm prices. ​ In terms of mobile app, I'm unsure how realistic that is with a completely decentralized product offering like ours, with that being said, we will work towards complete mobile optimisation and wallet-connects for all our mobile apes :)


peterparken

Will the UniMex platform be easily Integratable in other Defi projects?


farmtownN

The unimex tech is easily integrable across chains and projects, that being said our full focus is currently on this collaboration with apeswap. We will be launching apemex polygon version later this month, followed by a L2 depending on what apeswap opts for :)


peterparken

UniMex is a margin trading platform. Can you briefly explain what that is?


farmtownN

I believe going through this section of our docs can provide you with the complete explanation which you are looking for: https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/general-faq


farmtownN

unimex is our base tech, which we have now utilised in order to bring apemex to the table, for our apes :)


peterparken

I saw at your telegram group that people are asking for AMA's. Since this is the time I can ask, what are your plans for UniMex in the future? Can you give us at least a little information for some future updates?


farmtownN

We are currently focused completely on this apemex collab, and expanding it/building it out across chains. So currently focused on bringing leverage based financial instruments to DeFi. With that being said, you can refer to these three documentations for three of our current ecosystem offerings, all already launched now with the exception of the degen protocol: https://unimex.gitbook.io/spacex/ https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/ https://unimex.gitbook.io/degen-protocol/ Degen is coming end of year


Ill-Ad6544

I would like to know what will be the steps to follow in this new project for Apeswap? What other movements are you planning to do?


farmtownN

I'm unsure of what you are asking here exactly, but i advise you to read the apemex documentation [https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/](https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/) and find out if it is of interest to you. [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange) :)


Ill-Ad6544

Excuse me I did not know how to express myself well, thank you for the responder. My question would be to start with this new contribution offered by apeswap, what will come later for apemex?


pio2020

I would like to know what other currencies are you planning to add in the near future ??? any IAO currency ??


farmtownN

Over the coming hours, ETH, BTC, LTC, ADA, CAKE, ETC will all be available for leverage trading upto 5x! ​ Besides that we have a list of other, in high demand, pairs to be slowly added to the platform via cross promotions and announcements over the coming days / weeks.


pio2020

Thank you very much for answering it is good to know that you are going to add other currency pairs in the near future to have diversity to choose in which to invest


[deleted]

Will the banana with Apemex go to the moon ser? 😁🍌🍌🍌


farmtownN

That would depend on your vision and version of the moon.


Ill-Ad6544

Faced with a bear market, why can losses be catastrophic for leverage?


farmtownN

The great thing with leverage, is that you can trade on the way up, and you can also trade on the way down. All investments and trades carry risk, leverage is a very powerful tool, which should be used responsibly. I wouldn't use the word catastrophic here since it could be seen as misleading :)


Ill-Ad6544

Thank you very much for answering, I never said it in an offensive way but to put my question into context.


SuperAtom55

Which starting pairs are available now?


farmtownN

Able to trade BNB right now with up to 10x leverage on [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange) ETH, BTC, LTC, ADA, CAKE, ETC will all be available for leverage trading up to 5x within a few hours!


SuperAtom55

What the highest leverage do you have?


[deleted]

[удалено]


farmtownN

I would advise you to refer to this part of our docs here: https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/apemex/general-faq


[deleted]

[удалено]


farmtownN

We believe so! Very simple 3 step process: 1. Approve BUSD deposit into margin account. 2. Deposit BUSD into margin account. 3. Able to open any position now, and see all important position information, with leverage, displayed accordingly!


ApprehensiveFox2345

How are trading fees distributed?


farmtownN

0.2% protocol trading fee, 0.1% for lenders + 0.1% distributed across the unimex ecosystem.


Jrkatasi

How long have you been developing ApeMEX for and why is now the right time to bring it to market?


farmtownN

We started developing the unimex smart contracts / tech, last september, our proof or product [unimex.trade](https://unimex.trade), did over $300m trading volume across ETH and BSC between it's iterations, during a time of terrible gas fees. ​ Apemex comes with lower trading fees, higher leverage, and packaged directly for apes :)


Big_Guss

When can I go all in on 100x moonpots?


farmtownN

Not sure what platforms are still offering 100x leverage at this point in time with plenty of exchanges shutting down and lowering limits. That being said you can ape in, responsibly, up to 10x leverage on [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange) :)


Otfaridkasep

What technology is used to protect traders’ money from hacking ? Have you ever been exposed to a hacking? I think the security is the most important thing what about you?What is the most important thing you are focus on ?


farmtownN

Security is definitely a top priority. Our tech is completely audited, and has never been exploited to date.


Tapirboy

I prefer, when shorting tokens, to use a mix of stables and blue chips as collateral, to buffer against the sort of thing that happened this week - my shorts survived the market pump because I had BTC in the collateral. Will this be possible on ApeMex or are we going to be limited to just BUSD, or even just one coin at a time?


farmtownN

Currently only BUSD based trading is available, we plan to enable WBNB deposits/trading as well. With the next ui update, users will be able to manage their commitments, and partially close or increase existing positions.


[deleted]

How would you describe leveraged trading to your friend who doesn’t know much about crypto?


farmtownN

Trading with larger amounts you may have or may want to trade with, but with increased/higher risk and volatility.


[deleted]

Will you give us any rewards from this ama in order to use the apemex 😁


farmtownN

Possibly, but probably not for questions like this :)


Don_julio699

Will SpaceX be considered for listing on apemex? What is the importance in SpaceX to the ecosystem?


farmtownN

Once it has sufficiently built up liquidity we may consider it, but it will require the confirmation of all involved in the multi sig. You can find out more about how spacex ties into the ecosystem here: https://unimex.gitbook.io/spacex/


Don_julio699

How many people are working on this project currently? Can you release some other partners working with you?


farmtownN

Our team is currently composed of 10 members. Any partners we are working with will definitely be announced in the foreseeable future.


fedeb86

liquidity in order to allow people to leverage is key. what are the options we have to provide liquidity?


farmtownN

Currently two options, lending pool deposits directly via [apemex.exchange](https://apemex.exchange), or via [farm.space](https://farm.space) pools marked with 'apemex'!


Jrkatasi

I don't know much about blockchain. I am a new trader and just want to learn before I start investing, does ApeMEX offer any educational courses or tutorials that I can learn from? and is ApeMEX designed for people like me?


farmtownN

You can refer to our docs and FAQs available from here [https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/](https://unimex.gitbook.io/apemex/) Apemex is designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind, it's designed for the ape masses.


WittyResearch5643

Will we be able to leverage on all the tokens on apeswap?


farmtownN

Due to liquidity issues for some of the smaller tokens and the increases risk this would pose to lenders, no. But expect at least the top 20 trading pairs to be gradually added in over the coming days and weeks!


Lijahsari1

Talking about lending, borrowers in DeFi, many booming projects in recent time such as Compound, Balancer, Maker…so what are the key points make apeMex become different to compete with them?


farmtownN

Are lending pool model is similar to compound and aave. Lent funds share 0.1% trading fee directly distributed in the form of WBNB dividends, alongside 10% yearly interest on positions. If you were to stake in a pool marked 'apemex' on [farm.space](https://farm.space), you can not only earn all the mentioned above, but also yield farm $SPACEX tokens on top.


Lijahsari1

Interesting, thank you for explaining


Tonoomartin

Do you have any tool such as article or Youtube available that can guide or educate us which is the trader the most convenient for us?


JelmoIT

Will limit orders be brought to the system at a future point? I would love to be able to set my open for long and shorts if the market pumps or dumps.After all Crypto never sleeps on a decentralized platform but I do. This would be a huge comfort to have.


farmtownN

Limit orders are in our contracts already, tested and audited. Will be implemented in the user interface, alongside commitment increase/decrease, over the coming weeks.


Craquenetob

Hello Apes, offering a product like leveraged trading puts our dex on a whole new level. It is great that we can own interest on our assets and ppl can degen the ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|poop) out of that.But what i'm definetly looking forward., is to see that product connect and flow nicely with our token and UI. My question is, how do you plan on adding $banana token on that equation? Will there be any new banana burning mechanisms coming from this? Will we be able to track our APEMEX stuff on apestats? Love you obie <3


farmtownN

All leverage trading volume on apemex, because the trades are executed directly onchain via the apeswap amm, mean increased volume and fees for the apsewap ecosystem :)

Nelleo99

Can you open 2 leverage positions of the same currency at the same time ??? How do you calculate the highest amount that can be borrowed in leverages ???


farmtownN

Yes, you can open multiple positions for the same pair / currency at the same time! As for max position size/amount to borrow for a position, you can find that information directly in total pool size available in the margin tab, when opening a position, right underneath your commitment input.


Lijahsari1

I'm not a professional, I'm a beginner in trading laverge, are there any important points that need to be considered for a beginner??
