Welcome to DeGate August 2022 Ecosystem Update!
DeGate is Limit Orders, Decentralized on Ethereum. DeGate protocol allows you to do spot limit order trading with all the benefits of trading on a DEX. Zero-Knowledge rollups and Efficient Gas Saving Technology make trading on the DeGate DEX protocol high-speed and efficient.
DeGate DEX protocol enables permissionless token listing, which means anyone can list a token by adding the smart contract address. Expect a solid selection of tokens to trade and liquidity mining programmes.
DeGate is built on principles of permissionless, trustlessness and decentralization. DeGate is launching on the Ethereum mainnet first and aligns with the values of Ethereum, while remaining chain agnostic.

Product and Tech Update
This month, DeGate tech team is focused on protocol audit and security. The team is going deeper into the code and is conducting several rounds of internal reviews in order to guarantee 100% security of the protocol.
The research team held an internal seminar on topics of Proto-Danksharding and Danksharding in the month of August. We will be following closely on the deployment of EIP-4844, in preparation for developing DeGate subsequent releases.
DeGate DEX protocol has been running on Testnet on the Ethereum Rinkeby network since April 2022. As the preparations for the Mainnet launch accelerate, DeGate DEX will be migrating to the Ethereum Goerli network soon. Read on to find out why DeGate testnet needs to migrate to the Goerli network below. Access DeGate Testnet HERE.
What will happen to your tokens on DeGate Rinkeby network? You will be able to invoke Exodus Mode and withdraw them- this will be a good test to see how DeGate Exodus Mode works. Exodus Mode means that in the unlikely scenario where any mandatory withdrawal has not been processed for more than 15 days, anyone can trigger a transaction to enable the Exodus Mode of DeGate protocol. Read more about Exodus Mode on DeGate docs.
The Merge
The whole Ethereum community and anyone that has an interest in Web3 is eagerly awaiting for The Merge. This is when the Ethereum blockchain will migrate from Proof-of-Work (POW) to Proof-of-Stake (POS).
As part of the migration process, Ethereum testnets have to migrate to POS as well, and only Goerli network will be available after the merge. The good news is that Goerli successfully transitioned to PoS shortly after the network’s total block difficulty crossed 10,079,000 on August 11.
WEN Merge? The Bellatrix upgrade, which begins the final countdown, is set to activate on 6 September 2022. The Merge itself will be completed at some point between 10–20 September.

About DeGate
DeGate is Limit Orders, Decentralized on Ethereum. DeGate provides possibilities to trade the spot market with Limit Orders with the benefits of trading on a DEX.
DeGate is a Decentralized Exchange protocol built on Zero-Knowledge technology. It fills a key gap in the market by providing spot order book trading and grid trading within the Ethereum ecosystem, offering an experience similar to centralized exchanges.
Besides being user friendly, DeGate is built on the principle of Trustlessness, or “Can’t do evil”, with no admin key.
You can expect super-low gas fees that are the result of DeGate’s special Efficient Gas Saving technology. This innovation ensures significant gas savings while maintaining a decentralized protocol.
DeGate also enables permissionless listing, meaning that any tokens can be listed in a permissionless manner through an open listing mechanism. Expect DeGate Mainnet on Ethereum later this year.
We can’t wait to show you all that we’re building, with more to come. See the DeGate orderbook demo HERE.
