  • Token swaps: Swap crypto across blockchains with ease.

How Hanaswap.com relates to Balanced

Hanaswap.com is essentially a reskin of Balanced’s DEX functionality, focusing exclusively on cross-chain swapping. This specialization ensures that Hanaswap.com:

  • Leverages the proven infrastructure of Balanced for secure and efficient swaps.

  • Maintains the 0% Hanaswap.com fee model, adhering to Balanced’s existing fee structure.

Fee structure

  • Swaps on Hanaswap.com follow the enshrined Balanced smart contracts, which include fees built into the ICX network.

  • This structure inherently burns ICX with each transaction, contributing to the ICON Network’s deflationary design.


Unique features coming to Hanaswap.com

While Hanaswap.com currently focuses on cross-chain swaps, future updates will introduce exclusive functionalities to enhance the user experience:

  • Limit orders: Execute trades at your specified price, providing more control over your swaps.

  • Dollar-cost averaging (DCA): Automate recurring trades to reduce the impact of market volatility over time.

💡 These features will be unique to Hanaswap.com, offering users capabilities not available on Balanced.


Why use Hanaswap.com for swaps?

While Balanced offers a broad range of DeFi services, Hanaswap.com provides a dedicated interface for cross-chain swaps, making it:

  • User-friendly: A simpler interface tailored for swapping tokens across blockchains.

  • Cost-efficient: No additional fees beyond those already established by Balanced.
