The new onramp, launched in affiliation with payments band-aid Coindirect, is accepted to accommodate an easier acquaintance for new traders, according to the exchange’s Head of Product, Sunny Jain. It will alike address to traders who accept never traded cryptocurrencies.
“We are the alone DEX that has this functionality,” Jain said. As of today, users will be able to acquirement Ether (ETH) with above currencies including USD, JPY and GBP. Coindirect will automatically catechumen these currencies into euros, which can again be acclimated to acquirement ETH, a KyberSwap agent explained.

KyberSwap Targets New Traders
KyberSwap’s userbase angled amid February and July, and its trading aggregate added by eighty percent. In the aforementioned timeframe, it additionally climbed from the fourth better DEX by trading aggregate to the second, aloof abaft IDEX.
While it’s difficult to acquaint absolutely area this advance has appear from, the barter says that some of it came from new traders. Ether-loaded giftcards accept admiring new users to the platform, with a acceptable assimilation rate.
But some of the advance came at the amount of added marketplaces. Many DEXs ache from poor UX and functionality, and are boring accident users to platforms like KyberSwap, according to Jain. “We’re tighter, accept a bigger [fee] rate, and an all-embracing bigger user experience.”
A austere advertisement process, which requires projects to canyon assertive believability and KYC standards, could accord KyberSwap addition advantage over competitors.

At the time of writing, IDEX users barter about $2,670 of ChainLink (LINK) per day; KyberSwap’s circadian aggregate is about $30,000.
DEXs At The Center
For some DEX users, accepting a advertisement action goes adjoin the actual atom of decentralization. Jain highlights that KyberSwap is developing a agency to abolish advertisement requirements while advancement the affection of the platform.
That will booty time, and the activity wants to delay until the industry has accomplished afore implementing it. “We appetite to become permissionless, but the amplitude isn’t accessible for it,” Jain added.
Decentralized exchanges are growing in popularity. Binance has already created its own DEX, and added ample exchanges are accounted to be because their own.
There’s an basal crisis that these beyond players could bound absorb up absolute DEXs, but Jain charcoal assured of the platform’s viability. New facilities, such as the new authorization onramp, will advance KyberSwap’s account and accumulate it relevant.
It is additionally blockchain-agnostic, with an EOS-based analogue barter -YoloSwap- to facilitate cross-chain trades. KyberSwap affairs to add added bridges to added blockchains over time, and may alike actualize a arch to Binance Chain.
Having already been a analytical sideshow, DEXs are acceptable one of the capital acts of the crypto industry. The bazaar is acceptable to consolidate about a scattering of platforms and Jain expects KyberSwap to be one of them.
