The introduction of DeFi reshaped the landscape of the cryptocurrency ecosystem that was once dominated by centralized exchanges (CEXs) such as Coinbase and Binance, helping users and projects more easily access the market.
As DeFi turned out to be a cheaper and more accessible option for investors and projects, Bitcoin and Ether stored on CEXs collapsed and they started to compete for users as more and more investors decided to try DeFi.
Rather than taking a “just centralized” approach, the LCX exchange has adapted its model to provide centralized and decentralized services. During this time, its native token LCX has reached a new all-time high (ATH).
Data from CoinGecko shows that LCX price has skyrocketed 430% since hitting $ 0.034 on Aug 21 to $ 0.1775 on Sep 18 as its 24-hour trading volume increased 700% from an average of less than $ 1 Million USD increased to 7.6 million USD.

On September 17th it was LCX publication Update to the DeFi Terminal 2.0 of the protocol, also known as Fire Salamander DEX Aggregator.

As of September 21, the Total Value Locked (TVL) in LCX liquidity pools on Uniswap was $ 3.15 million, up 267% from $ 1.18 million on August 21.
Another reason for the benefits of LCX is the expansion of the ecosystem and the impending introduction of governance functions.
In the past few months, the LCX exchange has added popular altcoins to its list, including Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT), Hedera Hashgraph (HBAR), and Polygon (MATIC).
At the same time, LCX founder Monte Metzger moderated a series of podcast interviews with project managers.
The interviews introduced the communities behind these tokens to the LCX ecosystem and helped explain ongoing collaborations such as the partnership between LCX and Polkadot to build its security token standard using Polkadot’s Parachain technology.
