Mis on Poppin?

The Erik Voorhees-led crypto exchange ShapeShift is seiskamist formal operations and has begun fully decentralizing.

The exchange is open-sourcing everything and has commenced the largest airdrop in history, distributing $98M worth of FOX tokens to over a million customers and DeFi community members.

All 900,000 ShapeShift users will be eligible, along with 120,000 addresses associated with popular DeFi tokens. You can check whether you meet the requirements of the airdrop siin.

According to a blog post from Erik Voorhees, the decentralization process started last fall, when ShapeShift began replacing its trading systems with popular DEXs. Through integrations with 0x and THORChain, ShapeShift was able to offer fully decentralized trading — at scale — for ERC-20 and Bitcoin transactions.

Once ShapeShift’s trading systems were replaced by DeFi integrations, Vorhees saw no reason for the centralized aspect of ShapeShift’s existence to continue. He wrote, “With our integration of these DEXs, ShapeShift no longer provided trading services, and yet users didn’t lose their ability to trade. We outsourced the regulated activity to an immutable decentralized protocol. This was better for our users, better for us, and appropriately in line with the ethos of crypto: privacy, immutability, and self-sovereignty in finance.”

Founded in 2014, ShapeShift lived up to its name, transforming from an identity-free crypto trading platform, to a robust crypto exchange, to, now, taking steps towards a fully decentralized autonomous organization. It was a rocky ride, which Vorhees lamented, seemed “impossible” at times as the regulatory climate evolved and ShapeShift had to add KYC/AML to its platform to compete.

Transitioning the exchange to a DAO is a move that matches the original ethos of ShapeShift, to, as Voorhees writes, “create a useful tool for the frictionless trading of digital assets, without custody, done in a manner that protected users.”
