How we build EQX is just as important as what we build. We believe trust starts with transparency, and we are excited to share our plans for the Alpha and Beta launches. Feel free to take a look at our product roadmap below or visit our roadmap board to see a live view of what we’re working on.
Alpha Launch
The Alpha Launch is our introduction to the world. Our focus is to provide a small group of users a stable and secure mobile app on iOS and Android. Here’s what you can expect:
- Onboarding and Login with Email and Passkey, and Google/Apple. Why passkey? It’s one of the most secure and fastest ways to log in.
After onboarding, you’ll be added to the waitlist. Please note that our early community members will automatically be moved to the top of the waitlist. While you are on the waitlist, you will be able to:
- Discover Coins: Users will be able to search and view all of the coins and tokens supported on EQX.
- Learn About Coins: With each coin supported, users can explore the current market price (updated every second), price change in the past 24 hours, bid price, ask price, and the 24-hour highs and lows, as shown below.
When it’s your turn on the waitlist, we’ll send you an email, and you will be able to complete the verification process as shown below. Why do we need you to verify? We want to ensure all users moving crypto on EQX are real people who will not use the app to launder money or finance illicit activities.
Once you are successfully verified, you’ll be able to:
- Buy/Sell Crypto: Users can buy and sell crypto with stablecoin (USDC). We’ll soon offer more stablecoins, too, such as USDT Please refer to this list for all our supported trading pairs.
- Receive Crypto: Users can receive/deposit crypto into their EQX wallet from another wallet. Refer to this list of all available coins users can receive.
- Send Crypto: Users can send/withdraw crypto from their EQX wallet to another wallet. Refer to this list of all available coins users can send from their EQX wallet.
- Transaction History: Track your buy/sell trade transactions from a single location.
- Trade History: Track your buy/sell trade transactions from a single location.
- Portfolio Balance: Track your portfolio balance and holdings at a glance from the coin detail and dashboard screens, as shown below.
Beta Launch
Once Alpha has concluded, we will begin the Beta Launch (stay tuned for Beta announcements in future blog posts!). Here are some of the features users can expect throughout the Beta Launch:
- EQX Zero Membership: A $9.99/month membership that offers unlimited 0% trading fees, plus better referral rewards and more! The only way to be one of the first to get access is by joining the waitlist today.
- Swap Crypto: Users can exchange one crypto for another. For example, swap BTC for ETH or SOL for ADA.
- Referral Program: With the launch of our membership, we will introduce a more effective and rewarding incentive structure for our Referral Program. One that better aligns with EQX’s long-term goals. We will have more information to share on this at a later time.
- Transparency Hub: A dashboard that provides full transparency into EQX with near real-time tracking of EQX’s performance & financial metrics (e.g. trading volume, average response time, proof of reserves, etc).
- Buy/Sell with Fiat: Users can buy and sell crypto with fiat.
Why Have Multiple Launches?
Phasing the launches into multiple stages instead of one launch helps us ensure the platform is polished before a full public release. Your feedback is invaluable to us and ensures that we keep users at the forefront of everything we build. Feature enhancement ideas and bug reporting is available from our public-facing roadmap at https://roadmap.eq.exchange or email us at support@eq.exchange.
Thank you for helping us make EQX the best that it can be and for being early supporters of our mission. If you're excited and ready to experience a better way to trade, download the EQX app for Android or iOS to start exploring.
