List of Decentralized Exchanges that Emerged in Early 2021 Outside of Ethereum with Affordable Fees

Early Decentralized Exchange on Ethereum https://lbry.tv/@0fajarpurnama0:e/getting-started-with-dex-metamask-and:3 Thanks to decentralized exchanges, we can enjoy convenient trading without custody and know your customer (KYC). With Uniswap, trading becomes much more simpler with just the press of the button. Unlike centralized exchanges (CEX) where we need to: https://app.uniswap.org/ Register and verify our email address. Today, binding phone number for identity. Setting 2FA for security. Verifying identity by uploading identity document and taking a selfie. Sometimes, proof of address for very strict exchanges.

in convenient decentralized exchanges (DEX) we only need to: Choose a token and swap. after: Installing a web3 supported wallet like Metamask or Trust Wallet. https://metamask.io/ https://share.trustwallet.com/l2nusUW Filling the wallet with the native cryptocurrency for gas fee which is Ethereum in this case and any token we want to exchange. Click the connect button to connect our wallets.

Not only that, Uniswap allows anyone to provide liquidity and earn a portion of the transaction fees. https://app.uniswap.org/#/pool

Sushiswap made the next development which is yield farming where we not only earn portion of the transaction fees but rewarded with their native token Sushi. Eventually, all decentralized exchanges followed their path where they allow anyone to provide liquidity and earn a portion of the transaction fees and rewarded with their native token. UNI a token of Uniswap is one of the most popular token today. Here are some list of decentralized exchange on Ethereum: https://app.sushi.com/home Loopring https://exchange.loopring.io/invite/13320 Balancer https://balancer.exchange/ Curve https://www.curve.fi/ Bancor https://app.bancor.network/ Kyber https://kyberswap.com/ Swerve https://swerve.fi/ Lien https://app.lien.finance/trade CoFiX https://cofix.io/#/swap Crypto.com https://crypto.com/defi/swap

However, almost all of us did not expect there are too many demands and too many users which makes the gas fee unaffordable for average users. I personally already thankful for a gas fee of $20 per transaction. During crowded times, in can rise far over $100 per swap. Decentralized Exchanges Outside of Ethereum

While the average users are waiting for Ethereum 2.0 to fix the high gas fee problem, in early 2021 decentralized exchange outside of Ethereum blockchain started to emerge. The fees are lower than $1 per transaction either because they made them cheap or there are just not much users yet. Anyway, the following are the DEX that I found during the time of this writing. No need to worry about how to connect, just click the "connect wallet" button for every DEX and they will tell us of what wallet we can use. Binance Smart Chain The following DEXs are on Binance Smart Chain ecosystem with all transactions paid in BNB. Note that it is different from Binance Chain ecosystem where the address starts in bnb..., this ecosystem uses the same address as Ethereum. Therefore, you can use Metamask by just switching networks: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/binance-coin

(1) Click the network menu on the top or go to settings > Network. (2) Custom Network or Add Network. (3) Fill in the configuration for Binance Smart Chain: **Network Name:** Any name that you want. **RPC URL:** https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/ **Chain ID:** 56 **Currency Symbol:** BNB **Block Explorer URL:** https://bscscan.com/ **Disclaimer:** *do not trust even me easily, always check their official website for example* *https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/connecting-metamask-to-binance-smart-chain* *because you may get your fund stolen if you use a malicious RPC (please correct me if I am wrong).* Still, I prefer to use the Binance Chain Extension as it provides cross chain transactions between Binance Chain (bnb....) and Binance Smart Chain (0x....). https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/binance-chain-wallet/fhbohimaelbohpjbbldcngcnapndodjp?hl=en Pancake Swap

Pancake Swap is the currently best automated market maker (AMM) DEX other then Uniswap. One of the reasons why BNB rose in price. The average fee is below $1 per transaction. https://pancakeswap.finance/

Yield farming is also available and low fee as well. I always wanted to provide liquidity on Uniswap but cannot even try because of the high fee. Here you can try even for education just providing few dollars of liquidity and yield farming because the fees are less than $1 for each transactions. Other DEXs BSCswap https://bscswap.com//createBonus?referCode=JEEHZ Burger Swap https://burgerswap.org/ JulSwap https://julswap.com/#/swap Street Swap https://swap.thugs.fi/#/swap Duck Swap https://duckswap.finance/ The following DEXs originally just Ethereum DEXs but are integrating Binance Smart Chain into them: 1inch https://1inch.exchange/#/r/0xD9c6F048c08bCb24190C0FDE5BbC622f51F83469 IDEX https://exchange.idex.io/bsc/ Cream https://app.cream.finance/ Binance Chain

This is Binance's official DEX using the traditional orderbook with only trading function with no liquidity providing insentive and yield farming. Other than that, ther is BEPSwap that uses AMM Trading. https://binance.org/ https://chaosnet.bepswap.com/ Tron

Do you know before Binance Smart Chain, Tron already follows Ethereum's path. Even in 2020, they already have JustSwap where we too can provide liquidity to Tron tokens and earn or farm JST. The native coin is TRX which is used to pay gas fees. Metamask is not currently supported where you have to install their Tron Link wallet. https://justswap.network/#/home https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/just https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/tron https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tronlink%EF%BC%88%E6%B3%A2%E5%AE%9D%E9%92%B1%E5%8C%85%EF%BC%89/ibnejdfjmmkpcnlpebklmnkoeoihofec There are other Tron DEXs other than Just Swap but they are still using traditional order book: Poloniex https://poloniex.org/ Tron Trade https://trontrade.io/ Tomo Chain

Like Tron, Tomo Chain also immediately followed Ethereum's path and released their Lua Swap in 2020 with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in TOMO. Their previous TomoDex using traditional orderbook is also running. They also have a TomoBridge that can cross chain Ethereum, Binance Chain, Solana, and will bring more to bridge to Tomochain. Other than their official Tomo Chain wallet, Metamask is supported: https://app.luaswap.org/#/swap https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/tomochain https://dex.tomochain.com/ https://bridge.tomochain.com/ https://docs.tomochain.com/developer-guide/working-with-tomochain/tomochain-mainnet **Network Name:** Any name that you want. **RPC URL:** https://rpc.tomochain.com **Chain ID:** 88 **Currency Symbol:** TOMO **Block Explorer URL:** https://scan.tomochain.com/ Matic/Polygon

A trending AMM DEX on Matic/Polygon blockchain which is a blockchain aims for interoperability between Ethereum and other blockchain is Quick Swap with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in Matic and we can use Metamask wallet based on their guide: https://quickswap.exchange/#/swap https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/polygon https://medium.com/@quickswap.layer2/guide-how-to-set-up-custom-matic-mainnet-rpc-for-metamask-transfer-assets-from-l1-to-l2-to-use-3b1e55ccb5cb **Network Name:** Any name that you want. **RPC URL:** https://rpc-mainnet.matic.network **Chain ID:** 137 **Currency Symbol:** MATIC **Block Explorer URL:** https://explorer.matic.network/ Neo

On Neo blockchain currently there is Flamingo with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the current supporting wallet is Neoline and O3. https://flamingo.finance/swap/tabs https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/neoline/cphhlgmgameodnhkjdmkpanlelnlohao https://o3.network/#download There are other DEXs which uses traditional orderbook: Demex https://app.dem.exchange/ Switcheo https://switcheo.exchange/ Zilliqa

On Zilliqa blockchain currently there is Zilswap also by Switcheo with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the current supporting wallet is Zilpay or directly input private key which can be filled with Zilliqa. https://zilswap.io/swap https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/zilliqa Solana

On Solana blockchain currently there are Raydium and Serum with both traditional order book trading and AMM swap avaialble along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in SOL which can be contained in Sollet, Solflare, and some other Solana wallets. https://raydium.io/#/swap https://swap.projectserum.com/#/ https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/solana Avalanche

On Avalanche blockchain recently there is Pangolin with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in AVAX. If you hold 100 UNI in your Ethereum Wallet until the end of 2020, do not forget to claim your PNG airdrop. The wallet used is Metamask in Pangolin and use https://wallet.avax.network/ to bridge your native AVAX to the smart chain network and there is also a bridge between Ethereum and Avalanche on https://aeb.xyz/#/transfer. https://app.pangolin.exchange/#/swap https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/avalanche https://pangolin.exchange/tutorials/claim-png **Network Name:** Any name that you want. **RPC URL:** https://api.avax.network/ext/bc/C/rpc **Chain ID:** 0xa86a **Currency Symbol:** AVAX **Block Explorer URL:** https://cchain.explorer.avax.network/

Another that I found is Zero Exchange which also provides a bridge between Ethereum and Avalanche.. https://app.zero.exchange/#/swap Energi

Just a few days before the writing of this article, Energi blockchain released its Energi Swap with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in NRG where the wallet used is Metamask: https://app.energiswap.org/#/swap https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/energi https://defi.support.energi.world/hc/en-us/categories/360004384352-Getting-Started **Network Name:** Any name that you want. **RPC URL:** https://nodeapi.energi.network/v1/jsonrpc **Chain ID:** 39797 **Currency Symbol:** NRG **Block Explorer URL:** https://explorer.energi.network/ QTUM

In QTUM blockchain there is Qiswap with AMM swap available along with liquidity providing and yield farming where the gas fees are in QTUM but the only supported wallet now is qiwallet. https://qiswap.com/en/swap/exchange https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/qtum OKEX Chain

Like Binance Exchange, OKEX Exchange also wanted to keep up and released their OKEX Chain with both their orderbook and AMM decentralized exchange called OKEX Swap liquidity providing and yield farming available. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/okexchain https://www.okex.com/dex/swap Cosmos

There is an AMM swap still in demo on Cosmos main blockchain called B-Harvest with liquidity providing and yield farming available. https://swap.bharvest.io/swap Sif Chain
