StellarX

What StellarX does

StellarX is a non-custodial decentralized exchange (DEX) front-end operating on the Stellar Network, delivered through four integrated modules — Markets (multi-pair trading view), Swap (direct token exchange), AMM (automated market maker with liquidity provision and analytics), and Buy Crypto (fiat on-ramp via MoonPay supporting credit/debit cards, bank transfers, Apple Pay, and Google Pay in 150+ countries). Underlying technology is the Stellar distributed ledger combined with AMM pool mechanics; users connect external wallets (Lobstr integration noted in the purchase flow) without account registration to trade. The platform aggregates a $8.58M liquidity footprint and processes roughly $386K in 24-hour trading volume across dozens of Stellar-native and bridged asset pairs (XLM, USDC, EURC, BTC, ETH, PYUSD, XRP, SHX, VELO, AQUA, yXLM, yUSDC, BTCLN, etc.), with XLM/USDC anchoring ~52% of total liquidity.

The operating entity is Diamond Ltd., incorporated in Bermuda at 52 Reid Street, Hamilton, with legal governance under Bermuda law and a Toronto, Canada team footprint of 1–10 employees. StellarX operates under a trademark license from the Stellar Development Foundation and is described as commercially independent of the Foundation. Monetization runs on AMM transaction fees (which accrue primarily to liquidity providers rather than the protocol) and service fees bundled into MoonPay-facilitated crypto purchases; public fee schedules or take rates are not disclosed. Customer base is a horizontal segment of individual cryptocurrency traders accessing the Stellar Network, with no enterprise customers, named logos, or B2B contract structures evident in the data.

Core offering

StellarX is a non-custodial decentralized exchange (DEX) interface built natively on the Stellar Network that lets users trade cryptocurrencies across multiple trading pairs. It combines viewing real-time market data, executing token swaps, providing liquidity via AMM pools to earn fees, and a fiat on-ramp to purchase crypto via credit/debit cards, bank transfers, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. The platform serves individual crypto traders globally without requiring user registration, connecting wallets directly to the Stellar distributed ledger.

Product overview

StellarX is a decentralized exchange (DEX) trading platform built on the Stellar Network that provides AMM (Automated Market Maker) access. The platform consists of four integrated modules: Markets for viewing and executing trades across trading pairs, Swap for direct token exchanges, AMM for liquidity provision and fee earning, and Buy Crypto for purchasing cryptocurrencies via credit card and payment apps. The platform connects to the Stellar distributed ledger and supports trading of various tokens including XLM, USDC, BTC, ETH, and Stellar-native assets.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Direct peers

• Stellarport: A Stellar Network-native DEX interface and AMM aggregator. Directly competes with StellarX for Stellar traders, supports token swaps, and shares the same underlying Stellar liquidity ecosystem — making it the closest product competitor.
• StellarTerm: An open-source Stellar DEX client with order-book trading and wallet integration. Competes head-to-head for Stellar traders, provides similar swap and market-data functionality, and historically was a primary alternative to StellarX.
• Lobstr: A leading Stellar wallet integrated with the Stellar DEX. Competes with StellarX for Stellar users — wallets on Stellar typically expose swap functionality, and Lobstr's static asset hosting is also used by StellarX's buy-crypto flow.
• AQUA (Aquarius): A Stellar-based DEX and AMM with its own AQUA token listed on StellarX. Operates as a competing trading venue on the same ledger with overlapping assets and liquidity providers, making it a direct multi-product peer.

Broad incumbents

• Uniswap: The dominant Ethereum-AMM DEX. While not Stellar-native, it serves the same core user (DEX trader, LP) with the same product category (AMM swaps), and defines the UX and fee conventions StellarX competes against for multi-chain traders.
• SushiSwap: A multi-chain AMM DEX with a similar AMM/swap product surface. Competes for the same DEX user persona across chains and benchmarks StellarX on liquidity depth, fees, and supported assets.
• Curve Finance: A leading stablecoin and like-asset AMM. Relevant as an alternative venue for the XLM/USDC and USDC/EURC pairs on StellarX, particularly for stablecoin-focused LPs seeking deeper liquidity and lower slippage.

Emerging players

• Raydium: A Solana-native AMM DEX. Comparable in role — chain-native DEX front-end combining order book and AMM — even though on a different ledger; useful benchmark for StellarX's product-market fit within a single-chain DEX.
• Osmosis: A Cosmos ecosystem DEX/AMM hub. Comparable as a layer-1-native AMM platform targeting cross-border payments and IBC assets — overlapping with StellarX's positioning around payment-anchored assets on Stellar.

Others

• 1inch: A DEX aggregator that routes across multiple DEXs for best execution. Relevant as a potential liquidity outlet or aggregator competitor; if 1inch adds Stellar routing, it could siphon order flow away from StellarX.
