About Comdex
Comdex is an Interchain DeFi infrastructure layer to build applications to power DeFi in the Cosmos ecosystem and beyond by utilising on-chain modules of the prevailing primitives in the worlds of DeFi and Finance.
Comdex’s easy plug-and-play modules will enable developers to easily create their own customizable decentralized applications (dApps) within the Cosmos ecosystem. The Comdex chain is a Tendermint-based, IBC-enabled, layer-1 blockchain built on top of the Cosmos SDK with CosmWasm-integration.
As of now, there are three live applications on the chain, cSwap, Harbor Protocol and Commodo. The Comdex team developed all three projects.
dApps on the Comdex chain:
– cSwap - a decentralized, IBC-enabled exchange built on the Comdex chain. It uses a hybrid approach, combining both traditional AMM-based liquidity pools alongside an order book-based system.
– Harbor Protocol - an interchain stablecoin protocol that enables minting of the CMST stablecoin using various interchain assets as collateral. $CMST is an over-collateralized stablecoin backed by Interchain assets
– Commodo - Interchain liquidity protocol for lending-borrowing, built using the Comdex infrastructure.
