D-ETF
D-ETF (Decentralized ETF) is a decentralized trading and investment platform that combines blockchain technology with modern trading practices, allowing users to trade cryptocurrencies, stocks, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in a borderless environment. [1][2]
Overview
Founded by Joel Kuck in March 2021, D-ETF represents a new generation of trading platforms that seek to bridge the gap between traditional financial markets and the emerging world of decentralized finance (DeFi). By offering a diverse range of investment options including cryptocurrencies, stocks, and ETFs, D-ETF caters to both crypto-native users and traditional investors looking to explore blockchain-based trading. [2][5]
"D-ETF is dedicated to democratizing finance, with a strategic focus on African markets. Our goal is to unlock investment opportunities for individuals traditionally excluded from the global financial system" - mission statement[2]
The platform is designed to feature an intuitive interface that allows users to manage all their investments in one place. This approach aims to simplify the often complex world of decentralized trading. [2]
Key features of D-ETF include Spot D-ETF, ensuring assets are fully backed, primarily in cryptocurrencies, and a structure akin to CFDs for stocks and ETFs, allowing users to engage with the price differences without owning the underlying asset initially. [5]
The ultimate goal is to make every asset a Spot D-ETF, democratizing access to various investment opportunities." - the blogpost states[5]
Key Features
D-ETF offers trading in multiple asset classes, including cryptocurrencies, stocks, ETFs, and investment packages. The platform features an intuitive design to ensure easy navigation and trading for users of all experience levels. Security is a top priority, with the platform and its smart contracts undergoing multiple third-party audits to safeguard users' funds. Additionally, users can earn commissions through a referral system by inviting others to join the platform. D-ETF also provides a staking program that allows users to earn passive income by locking up their D-ETF tokens. [1][2]
D-ETF Token
D-ETF Tokens grant access to a variety of financial products on the platform, including stocks and cryptocurrencies. Higher-tier packages provide additional benefits such as free withdrawals and voting power, allowing users to influence the listing of assets on the platform. [2]
With a total supply of 100,000,000 $DETF tokens, 46% was allocated to Sale, 15% to Team/Advisors, 13% to Marketing, 10% to Staking/rewards, 6% to Reserves, and 5% each to Ecosystem & Liquidity. [3][4]
Technology
The D-ETF platform leverages traditional finance and decentralized technologies to ensure rapid performance and security. The platform underwent a comprehensive rewrite in 2023-2024 in order to make it more efficient. Key technological features include a robust Content Delivery Network (CDN), refined backend architecture, and integration with Trading View for advanced analytics. [2]
