AirSwap

AirSwap is a token exchange platform that can be used to trade or convert Ethereum based assets and ERC20 tokens. AirSwap allows for much of the trading activity to take place off-chain and operates faster than blockchain-only based exchanges
AirSwap is currently compatible with MetaMask or Ledger

Altcoin.io

DEX powered by Plasma. (smart contract on the Ethereum network which locks value and provides proof of locked value (i.e. tokens) to a sidechain.)

Barterdex

DEX powered by Atomic Swaps technology (Currently in Beta phase)

Bancor Protocol

Bancor is a decentralized liquidity network that allows you to hold any token and convert it to any other token in the network, with no counter party, at an automatically calculated price, using a simple web wallet.

Bisq

Bisq is an open-source desktop application that allows you to buy and sell bitcoins in exchange for national currencies, or alternative crypto currencies

Blocknet

Blocknet empowers the passionate communities behind every coin with atomic swaps on a truly decentralized cross-blockchain platform. Blocknet serves as a connector between blockchains, markets, and communities

Catalyst

Catalyst is an algorithmic trading library for crypto-assets written in Python. It allows trading strategies to be easily expressed and backtested against historical data

Cointroops

Global P2P Crytocurrency Exchange that offers anonymity to users (no KYC is asked).
Buy & Sell Cryptocurrency with local payment methods Faster, Cheaper and Safer.

Etherdelta

decentralized trading platform for [Ether](https://ethereum.org) and [Ethereum-based tokens]

Gnosis Dutch Exchange

decentralized exchange for ERC-20 tokens based on the Dutch auction principle

Herdius

Herdius intends to build a new infrastructure layer on top of all blockchains. Through our vertically scalable chain and distributed virtual wallet network, Herdius aims to tackle identity & interoperability as well as create a crypto asset agnostic decentralized exchange

Hodl Hodl

Hodl Hodl is a P2P cryptocurrency exchange that allows users to trade directly with each other and it doesn't hold user's funds — locking it in multisig escrow instead — which minimizes the possibilities of crypto assets theft and reduces trading

IDEX

IDEX is a decentralized exchange for trading Ethereum (ERC-20) tokens. IDEX combines the speed of centralization with the security of blockchain settlement.

KyberNetwork

IDEX is a decentralized exchange for trading Ethereum (ERC-20) tokens. IDEX combines the speed of centralization with the security of blockchain settlement.

Legolas

LGO Exchange incorporates a decentralized ledger within its proprietary centralized platform in order to neutralize front-running and guarantee the unalterability, temporality, and transparency of the order book

Loopring

With Loopring, traders will have complete and total control of their crypto-assets. This means there is no need to go through the pesky and risky process of depositing money to centralized/custodial exchanges.

Mothership

That is why we are creating an ecosystem of accessible financial products and services to put every market participant in full control of their assets regardless of background or location.

Next.exchange

NEXT.exchange is a trademark of the Dutch registered company OpenTrader N.V. and is a decentralized digital asset exchange for coins and tokens.

StellarTerm is an open source client for the Stellar network. Send, receive, and trade assets on the Stellar network easily with StellarTerm .StellarTerm is just a client that can be used to access the Stellar Decentralized Exchange. Neither StellarTerm nor the developers of it are involved with operating the Stellar network

Streamity

decentralized platform for exchanging cryptocurrency for any currency, which allows users to trade without intermediaries, guarantees fair deals and security thanks to the architecture of smart-contracts and API of payment systems.

Token Store

buy and sell ERC20 tokens in a secure decentralized fashion. We plugged in multiple decentralized exchanges to increase liquidity available

Waves

WAVES is a decentralized blockchain platform focusing on custom blockchain tokens operations. National currencies transfer is maintained on the WAVES blockchain through compliant gateway operators

Okay, DEXs list. About time we start one, since I'm actually looking forward to them coming up seriously mext year. False dawns in 2017 and this year as so many are slow to develop.

Add Waves and Counterparty, with xcp and waves pairs respectively, to that. I followed NVO last year and had really high hopes except they seem to have stalled badly.

Is there is a real difference between Plasma and atomic swaps? because in Altcoin.io website, the first page speak about Plasma but when you try the website (the rest of the pages), they are referring to the process we're doing as Atomic swaps.

[LeGaulois]

I was hoping to see decentralized exchanges a lot more used than what they used to be but look like most of the crypto users are not ready to use any of them. Even the "advanced" users. I too believe decentralized exchanges will play a major role in the future. The question is: when?

If I understood correctly, Plasma is all about smart contracts scalability.  It broadcasts only completed TX. to the chain to save data and processing power. It's a kind of Segwit brother.

If someone can confirm or correct me...

Yeah, I don't think they're related. Last I heard of Plasma was when Vitalik Buterin mentioned it as a scalability option for Ethereum. I don't know how it works, but yeah apparently it made leaner blockchains, with less data storage required... maybe even comparable to Bitcoin's Lightning Network (in terms of keeping other data off chain).

Atomic swaps is just exchanging across blockchains (this would be the true decentralized exchange methodology in my view). No depositing of funds anywhere, just a direct swapping between different blockchains. IIRC Litecoin was one of the first to successfully do this with Bitcoin.

Hey, just thought I'd share this service I just stumbled upon in the forum: a DEX Aggregator called Totle. First time I've heard of something like this. Summary of how it works:

- Wallet connected to the app
- App connects to network of exchanges: Kyber, Bancor, ED, Raday Relay

Apparently, it combines all the orderbooks so you get liquidity. Still in Beta though, but I'll probably give it a try (not really an ERC20 DEX user).

I only know about after reading your post. Did you try it since? The idea is good and time-saving, however, I am not able to try the beta version. When I go to "Try Beta v0.3" I just get a blank page :/

(you forgot to add the URL in the tag https://www.totle.com/)

Added, thank you
