xSigma is a decentralized stablecoin exchange platform with a clean user interface (UI). According to the website, xSigma is a blockchain-based research and development lab. xSigma’s mission is to promote the adoption of blockchain by researching the use cases in decentralized finance (Defi), logistics, infrastructure, and management. The platform aims to find ways in which decentralized technologies can be utilized in various industries to create value for the enterprise and consumer markets.

According to the whitepaper, various Defi platforms still have not solved issues like the transaction fee, platform governance, false promises of high returns, and high entry barriers. Founders and the technical user interface also hinder the adoption of the Defi platform. The mission of the xSigma platform is to bring more transparency and legitimacy to the blockchain and Defi. The platform aims to adopt decentralized technologies by analyzing, researching, and testing innovative concepts and use cases. The platform intends to bring traditional industries to the blockchain network and provide financial tools that are more accessible.

The platform further provides the solution to improving existing platforms concerning the elements of Defi. The platform primarily provides a user-friendly interface that is clean, simple, and clear. The exchange charges on xSigma’s DEX platform are relatively low compared to other exchanges. Thus, the platform’s goal is to build a product ecosystem that realizes the true potential of blockchain.

The native cryptocurrency of xSigma is called SIG. It is a utility and a governance token for the platform. The holders of SIG tokens have voting rights, and can vote on future decisions concerning xSigma within the platform’s decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Holders also may earn an incentive, which is a part of the DEX exchange fee. Moreover, the holders of SIG tokens get a subsidy over transactions done on the xSigma platform.

The platform burns tokens to reduce the total supply. Burning occurs when a fraction of tokens is sent to a wallet with no private key. This means the tokens are lost permanently. Tokens are usually burned to reduce availability and increase market value.

The platform works on the Ethereum blockchain.

The xSigma platform is owned by ZK International Group and was launched in 2018 by a team of four people. The team includes Alex Lebed, CTO; Kamal Obbad, head of research and development; Daniel Garay, head of product; and Joseph Gelet, financial architect.

The maximum total supply of SIG tokens is 24 million coins. The whitepaper was released on January 12, 2021.
