SuperEx丨DEX Traditional Token Listing Fees, SuperEx Free Market Poised to Become New Favorite
Token listing fees have long been the focus of market disputes. Many projects choose DEX as the initial listing platform to avoid high costs. Hyperliquid has attracted a great deal of project attention through its innovative token listing auction mechanism and successful airdrop activities. Its mechanism has reduced the cost of token listing, enhanced market fairness, and gained a competitive advantage in the derivatives DEX track. Meanwhile, the SuperEx Free Market has brought a brand-new choice to the token listing market in a unique and innovative way, further stimulating competition and innovation.
The design of Hyperliquid’s auction mechanism aims to solve the problems of excessive costs and lack of transparency in the traditional token listing process. Different from the process of “paying the fees first and then discussing token listing” in traditional exchanges, this mechanism allocates the token listing rights to the project parties with the highest demand in the market and allows users to directly participate in the token listing process through fair bidding.
The core elements of its auction mechanism include:
Open Bidding Process
Hyperliquid has set up a specialized token listing auction section on its platform, where all project parties can publicly participate in the bidding. Each round of auction has a fixed time limit, and all bidding information is disclosed in real time to ensure transparency. The project party with the highest final bid will obtain the token listing rights. This mechanism effectively avoids the unfair phenomena such as “backroom deals” by senior management of traditional exchanges or in price negotiations.
Affordability and Flexibility
The auction model has significantly reduced the financial pressure on project parties when initially entering the market. The bidding amount is determined by market demand rather than being unilaterally set by the exchange. Therefore, many small and medium-sized projects can successfully participate in the auction by reasonably planning their budgets. Data shows that since the launch of the auction mechanism, the average cost of token listing on Hyperliquid has been reduced by 65%.
Incentivizing Community Support
In Hyperliquid’s model, users can vote to support certain projects, and the number of votes will directly affect the auction competitiveness of the projects. This not only increases users’ sense of participation but also helps project parties quickly accumulate popularity within the community.
Automated Smart Contracts
The entire auction process is supported by smart contracts, ensuring that all fund flows and bidding processes are immutable. For project parties, this technological means has enhanced trust and also reduced errors or delays that may be caused by human intervention.
Market Performance and Data of the Auction Model
The market performance of Hyperliquid since the launch of this model has proved the feasibility and attractiveness of its innovation:
Significantly Reduced Token Listing Fees
Data shows that in the second quarter of 2024, the average token listing fee on the Hyperliquid platform was between $20,000 and $30,000, a reduction of more than 60% compared to the average fee of traditional DEX.
Surge in Token Listing Projects
In the third quarter of 2024 alone, the number of newly listed projects on the Hyperliquid platform increased by 40% compared to the previous quarter, and 70% of them were small and medium-sized projects that were trying to list on the DEX platform for the first time.
Increased Trading Activity
As more projects entered the market, the trading volume on the Hyperliquid platform also climbed. In the third quarter of 2024, the platform’s average daily trading volume increased from $2 million to $4.5 million, and the number of quarterly active addresses grew by 45%.
Increased User Community Participation
Hyperliquid’s token listing auction mechanism has attracted a large number of community users, and the platform’s user growth rate has reached an astonishing 70% with the cooperation of airdrop activities.
The success of Hyperliquid is not only an innovation in the business model but also sets a new benchmark for the entire cryptocurrency industry. The auction model has effectively broken the monopoly position of traditional exchanges through transparent bidding, enabling project parties and users to jointly determine the allocation of market resources in a more open manner.
SuperEx Free Market: A New Exploration of Decentralization
Different from Hyperliquid’s auction mechanism, the SuperEx Free Market provides a more open approach in token listing strategies. The SuperEx Free Market allows any project party to complete token listing on the platform through a minimalist process, further reducing the technical and financial thresholds.
Fast Token Listing Process
The SuperEx Free Market has achieved an extremely fast experience of “completing token listing within one minute” by using standardized smart contracts to complete the technical review and deployment of listed projects. Compared with Hyperliquid’s bidding mechanism, this model is more suitable for small projects that pursue time efficiency.
Zero Communication Costs
Project parties do not need to conduct any additional negotiations with exchange executives, saving a lot of communication time and potential intermediate costs. This transparent operation process makes more emerging projects willing to try using the SuperEx platform.
Diversified Support for Token Listing
The SuperEx Free Market supports multi-chain and repeated token listing mechanisms, helping projects achieve broader market coverage. This flexibility has attracted a large number of Meme projects and innovative tokens.
The innovative strategies of Hyperliquid and the SuperEx Free Market are reshaping the pattern of the token listing market:
Attracting More Small and Medium-sized Projects
The traditionally high token listing fees have discouraged many potential projects, while the new models enable small and medium-sized projects to enter the market more easily, injecting more vitality into the market.
Accelerating Market Competition
The decline in token listing costs and the simplification of the process have attracted more competitors, increasing the diversity of the token market. In particular, the SuperEx Free Market has handed more choices to the market itself, breaking the monopoly position of traditional exchanges.
Promoting Industry Standardization
With the success of models like Hyperliquid and the SuperEx Free Market, more trading platforms may follow this trend, promoting the industry to develop in a more transparent and efficient direction.
Hyperliquid’s auction mechanism and the SuperEx Free Market have respectively explored two innovative paths for token listing. In the future, these models may integrate more functions, such as community reward programs and automated auditing tools, to create more value for users and project parties. Especially in the context of the constantly evolving market, these two models are expected to jointly promote the DEX market to a new height.
