The Sovryn DEX runs on the RSK smart-contracts platform. The developers say they plan to launch a decentralised governance mechanism this month.
The Sovryn exchange offers lending and non-custodial trading of Bitcoin, USDT and the Dollar on Chain (DOC) stablecoin.
“Bitcoin has created a decentralised monetary system. Through Sovryn we are delivering a Bitcoin with a decentralised financial system,” said Edan Yago, a project representative.
Funding for Sovryn’s development came from Greenfield One, Collider Ventures and Monday Capital.
Earlier ForkLog reported on a tool built on the RSK platform to interact Bitcoin with the Aave DeFi service’s token.
