QiSwap is a decentralized exchange that provides liquidity for the Qtum cryptocurrency and other native assets, dubbed QRC20 tokens. <\/p>\n<p>During Phase 1 of the mainnet, QiSwap will enable trading between Qtum and the Qcash (QC) stablecoin. In the weeks following launch, QiSwap plans to add additional trading pairs and pursue listings on major exchanges. In the more distant future, dubbed Phase 4, the platform will launch the governance contract for its Qi token. <\/p>\n<p>QiSwap founder and chief operating officer Robert Gaillard told Cointelegraph:\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Qiswap will further allow the community to take control of the Qtum protocol because it is one of the foundational money legos of the DeFi ecosystem. We see QiSwap as the first step into a broader push of DeFi tools that we are being told are lined up over the next few months on Qtum.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Qtum was launched in 2016 as a blockchain protocol that combined\u00a0Ethereum\u2019s smart-contract capabilities with Bitcoin\u2019s security. The Qtum cryptocurrency is ranked 66th by market capitalization with a total value of $233.5 million. <\/p>\n<p>Qtum\u2019s foray into DeFi comes at an opportune time in the market\u2019s evolution. More than $13.3 billion has been locked into DeFi projects at the time of writing, with the vast majority of funding coming in the last six months. It wasn\u2019t until May that the total value locked reached $1 billion. <\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2020-11\/12f827a2-e60d-4805-978c-e8abeb1dc80b.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><figcaption style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Total value locked in DeFi by <\/em><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defipulse.com\/\"><em>DeFi Pulse<\/em><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The market for decentralized exchanges, or DEXs, peaked just north of $4.6 billion last week. <\/p>\n<p><template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"defi_newsletter\"><\/template><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
