tbDEX v1.0: Open Source Liquidity and Trust Protocol
tbDEX enables wallet applications to connect liquidity seekers with providers and equips all participants with a common language for facilitating transactions.
- "The first major version of tbDEX, an open source liquidity and trust protocol, has been released! SDK implementations of the protocol are available in TypeScript/JavaScript, Kotlin, and Swift enabling integration with Web, Android, and iOS applications," announced TBD.
"tbDEX is architected on Web5 infrastructure, utilizing decentralized technologies such as Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) to securely validate counterparty identity and trust, as well as helping to enable compliance with relevant laws and regulations."
- "tbDEX allows for a permissionless network, meaning you do not need our blessing to use the SDK. It's all open source, so feel free to begin building with tbDEX today!"
