More tokens at your fingertips
Before now, we’ve been living with a 1990s-internet crypto trading experience. You had to either trust centralized exchanges with control of your funds, or face a nightmare of buggy web3 wallets, bridges between chains, gas fee hassles, and more. Nekodex shows a new way is possible: super easy to use, and your coins stay safely in your own account.
Nekodex requires just 3 steps to trade. Set up an account on your phone in seconds, deposit funds into your account, choose & buy the coin you want. A few seconds later it will be in your account!

How does it work?
Nekodex is on the Optimism network (OP Mainnet). Using the UI that got rave reviews during the Nekodex Playground campaign, you set up and deposit USDC into your Nekodex Account. Once you have deposited USDC, you can buy and sell a long list of top crypto tokens in several categories including meme coins, AI coins, and more.
⭐For Playground users, there’s a one-tap migration process before you can deposit.
When you tap Buy, your account requests the coins using the Across Protocol. A bot (filler) on the destination chain buys the coins, and sends them to your account on the destination chain. USDC needed for the purchase is then sent to the bot.
The Sell process is similar. Your account sends the coins you want to sell to a bot on the destination chain, which sells the coins for USDC. The USDC is sent to your account on Optimism via the Across Protocol.
And the Nekodex UI is so smooth, you will forget all these details and finally be able to focus 100% on what really matters: getting the coins you want!
Nekodex Account
Nekodex uses a smart account system to make getting onchain 10x easier and safer. DeFi used to be a nightmare of in-browser wallets, seed phrase backups, gas tokens and gas prices, smart contract addresses …
That era is over! Nekodex works the way you expect: deposit, buy, sell, withdraw. Account creation is managed, secured and backed up using your phone biometrics so it’s easy, fast and always in your control. The complexity of DeFi has finally been conquered 🙌
Account Abstraction in Action: Nekodex
Nekodex is one of the earliest team to adopt account abstraction and chain abstraction into its mobile trading app. Unlike a typical DEX, which often requires its user to have a decent understanding of Ethereum's complexities, Nekodex is able to offer an experience for beginners to buy crypto on-chain with just a few taps, literally. Users don’t need a pre-existing wallet, a seed phrase to write down, or knowing what gas fees are. There’s no unnecessary signatures—just a few taps, and you’re done.
The Typical DEX Journey
Take out your laptop because most DEXes are unusable on mobile
Download a wallet, such as MetaMask
Create a new wallet and carefully save your seed phrase
Create an account on centralized exchange, like Coinbase, and send your ID for KYC
Buy USDC on Coinbase and send it to
MetaMask on Ethereum
Go to a DEX, find AIXBT, place the trade
a warning pop-ups "Not enough ETH to pay gas fee"
Go back to Coinbase, buy ETH, and send it to MetaMask
Go back to DEX, find AIXBT, place the trade
Sign to approve spending
Sign again to approve the swap
Done—finally!
