It reminds me of when I built an open source, fully decentralized exchange and the founders of the project I worked for tried to shut it down. I quit the industry because there were too many government and possibly intelligence agency shenanigans going on. In such environment, you start becoming paranoid. I had enough of the senseless politics, sabotage, deception, corruption, etc...
So your claim is that there’s no other open source fully decentralized exchange in the world, despite that being the goal and claim of innumerable crypto enthusiasts like yourself? And it’s all because of 3-letter-agencies, in a domain literally full of people who are building things to avoid them?
I mean, I wouldn’t be too surprised tbh. But also, why is everyone ignoring this obvious situation you present then?
Now there are quite a few. Mine was one of the first ones and it's one of the few DEXs which is fully deterministic. Meaning that it's highly secure, traceable and auditable.
The founders of the community I was associated with defamed me but they have too much money and potentially shady government associations for me to do anything about it legally.
