# Problem & Solution

## Limitations of Traditional Trading

#### **Lack of Transparency**

* In many centralized exchanges, transaction records and liquidation processes are often opaque, making it difficult for traders to verify the fairness of the system.

#### **High Barriers to Entry**

* Orderbook-based futures trading typically requires a deeper understanding of advanced trading strategies and often favors institutional traders or large funds with significant capital.

#### **Difficulty in Risk Diversification**

* When liquidity is spread thinly across multiple assets or orderbooks, market stability can suffer, leading to higher price slippage and volatility.

## How waveX Addresses These Challenges

#### **Transparent On-Chain Trading**

* Every step of opening or closing a position is executed via smart contracts, creating a fully **verifiable record** on the blockchain. This transparency reduces the risk of hidden fees or unfair liquidations.

#### **WLP (Liquidity Pool) Structure**

* Instead of matching orders through an orderbook, waveX relies on a shared liquidity pool where deposited assets facilitate both long and short positions.
* **Lower Entry Barrier**: You only need a small amount of assets to become a liquidity provider.
* **Consolidated Liquidity**: By pooling assets in one place, waveX can offer more stable trading conditions and reduced price slippage.

#### **Regular Rewards Distribution**

* Liquidity providers (LPs) earn some of various fees (e.g., open and close positions, swaps) as rewards, distributed weekly (typically on Wednesdays, subject to change).
