XSigma Makes DeFi History with Nasdaq Backing

Decentralized finance, or DeFi, has become one of the year’s most remarkable growth stories. As millions of users converge on this new paradigm-shifting technology, questions surrounding the legitimacy and accountability of DeFi platforms are becoming more critical. Although there are hundreds of companies in the DeFi sector, only one is backed by an SEC-regulated, publicly listed enterprise—xSigma Corporation.

Founded in 2018 as a blockchain research and development lab, xSigma is a subsidiary of ZK International Group (NASDAQ: ZKIN), a multinational manufacturing and technology company with a presence in Asia, Europe and North America. Through the support of its parent company, xSigma is building a decentralized marketplace that will allow for the proliferation of affordable financial services, payment solutions and custody.

XSigma’s public backing and world-class development team bring a new level of transparency, accountability and legitimacy to the DeFi sector. Through ZK International, xSigma can bridge the gap between the booming crypto vertical and the functionality of more established trade-fi platforms. The result is a solution that combines the best of both worlds: the trustless design of DeFi coupled with the functionality of traditional finance.

To aid xSigma’s development, ZK International recently announced a partnership with Dentoro Alliance LP, a major European software company that will provide key development and operational resources to the DeFi subsidiary. The Dentoro agreement adds to xSigma’s in-house capacity and reputational strength, ensuring a smooth project rollout over the next several years. XSigma currently employs an award-winning team of software developers, project managers and engineers formerly of Google, Facebook, Amazon, Ripple Labs, 1inch and others.

ZK International provides xSigma the human and capital resources required to address the myriad issues currently undermining DeFi adoption, especially among more traditional mainstream investors. XSigma’s forthcoming decentralized exchange will offer a user-friendly platform for token swapping, farming, governance and account management. Further down the road, these functionalities will be enhanced with new lending and borrowing services, a regulated custodial exchange and a derivatives platform for blockchain assets. XSigma’s enhanced user experience will replace the faulty UI, stuck transactions, pricing error and pooling issues that currently plague DeFi projects.

The DeFi solutions that prevail in the long run will combine outstanding technology with a team, vision and backers of equal caliber. Through ZK International, XSigma is in a position to lead the nascent DeFi industry and onboard a new generation of users.

DeFi isn’t dead, it just needs to fix these 3 critical problems

It’s been a rough year for DeFi, and it may not get any better until projects focus more on security, regulation and usability. The persistent challenges  decentralized finance  face have been well documented by a handful of analysts and the recent collapse of the Terra ecosystem re-enforced the fact that something is critically wrong with DeFi. I think DeFi today is completely broken for 99% of the population. The promise of a more transparent financial system has been overtaken by greed. UST/LUNA is just the latest in a string of bad developments: — Peter Yang (@petergyang) May 11, 2022 Let's take a look at what experts say DeFi needs to do in order to have another revival.  Improved usability To date, the promise of open and uncensored access to a global decentralized financial system has been largely hampered by the complicated interface, confusing multi-step staking processes and lack of clarity surrounding the yields on various tokens. What do you thi...

ENS DAO delegates offer perspective on DAO governance and decentralized identity

AlphaWallet CEO and Spruce co-founder talk about their roles as contributors to the Ethereum Name Service following the project's recent airdrop. Earlier this month, the Ethereum Name Service, or ENS, formed a decentralized autonomous organization, or DAO, for the ENS community.  Cointelegraph spoke to two ENS DAO delegates who applied for the opportunity to represent the community and stay involved in the decision making process: Victor Zhang, CEO of AlphaWallet, an open source Ethereum wallet, and Gregory Rocco, co-founder of Spruce, a decentralized ID and data toolkit for developers. Zhang spoke about his experience as an external contributor to ENS and an early supporter since 2018. Zhang initially sought to help ENS by offering Alpha Wallet as a user-friendly tool for  resolving .eth names and cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Essentially, if a user inputs an .eth name in the AlphaWallet, it will show the wallet address, and vice versa using reverse resolution. Alpha...

National Futures Association adds rules for members handling digital assets

The CFTC-linked self-regulatory organization (SRO) has disclosure rules for members engaging in activities with BTC and ETH; now, standards of conduct are being added. The National Futures Association (NFA), the United States self-regulatory organization for derivatives markets, has issued a new compliance rule addressing members’ conduct. The new rule complements requirements issued in 2018. The NFA has “well over 100” members that engage in activities with digital asset commodities, but no way to address fraud or misconduct committed by those members, the organization explained to secretary of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Christopher Kirkpatrick in a Feb. 28 letter as it submitted the proposed new rule for approval. The new rule is modelled on the NFA’s antifraud rules for exchange traded futures and swaps transaction and retail foreign exchange. The NFA is the only registered self-regulatory organization that has delegated authority from the CFTC, giving it a...
