SatoshiDEX is a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the Stacks blockchain, a layer-2 blockchain connected to Bitcoin through Proof-of-Transfer (PoX) consensus. Inspired by Uniswap, SatoshiDEX facilitates peer-to-peer (P2P) trading of digital assets while offering several unique advantages due to its integration with Stacks. This whitepaper outlines the key features and benefits of SatoshiDEX, its architecture, tokenomics, and roadmap for development.
