FAQs

1. How do I begin trading on Demex (previously Carbon Network)?

Demex uses USD as margin for perpetual trading. USD is backed by a basket of USDC from multiple networks (Base, Arbitrum, Osmosis, Ethereum, Noble, etc) to allow for zero-slippage deposits.

Follow these steps to deposit USDC onto Demex and start your trading journey:

1. Hold any supported USDC stablecoins within the USD basket. Check its constituents here.

2. Navigate to Demex's deposit page, connect your preferred wallet and deposit the USDC.

app.dem.exchange/account/balances/deposit/cgt/1

1. The USDC will be auto-converted at a 1:1 ratio to USD, and you can also withdraw USD to any of the supported stablecoins at any time.

2. Congratulations! You are now ready to trade on Demex, and also be a market maker by providing liquidity to Perp Liquidity Pools.
