Today, the ALEX team is taking Bitcoin DeFi to the next level by allowing people to use their Bitcoin in new ways,” said Dr. Chiente Hsu, CEO of ALEX. “We have created an invaluable tool that will allow other projects in the Stacks ecosystem and the broader Bitcoin economy to launch their own tokens. This creates a starting point for those who are still in the early stages of raising capital.”
At press time, over 19,000 unique addresses accessed ALEX’s testnet with more than 110,000 transactions processed. ALEX has completed audits with CoinFabrik and Lease Authority.
