- {
- prompt: 'What problem does 0x solve?',
- answer: (
- <div>
- In the two years since the Ethereum blockchain’s genesis block, numerous decentralized
- applications (dApps) have created Ethereum smart contracts for peer-to-peer exchange. Rapid
- iteration and a lack of best practices have left the blockchain scattered with proprietary and
- application-specific implementations. As a result, end users are exposed to numerous smart
- contracts of varying quality and security, with unique configuration processes and learning
- curves, all of which implement the same functionality. This approach imposes unnecessary costs
- on the network by fragmenting end users according to the particular dApp each user happens to be
- using, eliminating valuable network effects around liquidity. 0x is the solution to this problem
- by acting as modular, unopinionated building blocks that may be assembled and reconfigured.

- prompt: 'How is 0x different from a centralized exchange like Poloniex or ShapeShift?',
- answer: (
- <div>
- <ul>
- <li>0x is a protocol for exchange, not a user-facing exchange application.</li>
- <li>
- 0x is decentralized and trustless; there is no central party which can be hacked, run
- away with customer funds or be subjected to government regulations. Hacks of Mt. Gox,
- Shapeshift and Bitfinex have demonstrated that these types of systemic risks are
- palpable.
- </li>
- <li>
- Rather than a proprietary system that exists to extract rent for its owners, 0x is
- public infrastructure that is funded by a globally distributed community of
- stakeholders. While the protocol is free to use, it enables for-profit user-facing
- exchange applications to be built on top of the protocol.

- </ul>
- </div>
- ),
- },
- {
- prompt: 'If 0x protocol is free to use, where do transaction fees come in?',
- answer: (
- <div>
- 0x protocol uses off-chain order books to massively reduce friction costs for market makers and
- ensure that the blockchain is only used for trade settlement. Hosting and maintaining an
- off-chain order book is a service; to incent “Relayers” to provide this service they must be
- able to charge transaction fees on trading activity. Relayers are free to set their transaction

- to approach an efficient economic equilibrium over time.
- </div>
- ),
- },
- {
- prompt: 'What are the differences between 0x protocol and state channels?',
- answer: (
- <div>
- <div>
- Participants in a state channel pass cryptographically signed messages back and forth,
- accumulating intermediate state changes without publishing them to the canonical chain until
- the channel is closed. State channels are ideal for “bar tab” applications where numerous
- intermediate state changes may be accumulated off-chain before being settled by a final
- on-chain transaction (i.e. day trading, poker, turn-based games).
- </div>
- <ul>
- <li>
- While state channels drastically reduce the number of on-chain transactions for specific
- use cases, numerous on-chain transactions and a security deposit are required to open
- and safely close a state channel making them less efficient than 0x for executing
- one-time trades.
- </li>
- <li>
- State channels are isolated from the Ethereum blockchain meaning that they cannot

- prompt: 'What types of digital assets are supported by 0x?',

- <div>
- 0x supports all Ethereum-based assets that adhere to the ERC20 token standard. There are many
- ERC20 tokens, worth a combined $2.2B, and more tokens are created each month. We believe that,
- by 2020, thousands of assets will be tokenized and moved onto the Ethereum blockchain including

- {
- prompt: '0x is open source: what prevents someone from forking the protocol?',
- answer: (
- <div>
- Ethereum and Bitcoin are both open source protocols. Each protocol has been forked, but the
- resulting clone networks have seen little adoption (as measured by transaction count or market
- cap). This is because users have little to no incentive to switch over to a clone network if the
- original has initial network effects and a talented developer team behind it. An exception is in
- the case that a protocol includes a controversial feature such as a method of rent extraction or
- a monetary policy that favors one group of users over another (Zcash developer subsidy - for
- better or worse - resulted in Zclassic). Perceived inequality can provide a strong enough
- incentive that users will fork the original protocol’s codebase and spin up a new network that
- eliminates the controversial feature. In the case of 0x, there is no rent extraction and no
- users are given special permissions. 0x protocol is upgradable. Cutting-edge technical
- capabilities can be integrated into 0x via decentralized governance (see section below),
