Crypto investment is that storm. With strict capital controls in place by most countries to control the flow of money and charge high taxes,<br> cryptocurrency gained usage in circumventing capital controls and taxes,<br> leading to an increase in demand. Cryptocurrency has been able to present an easy to use digital alternative to fiat currencies. Offering frictionless transactions and inflation control,<br> investors have been prudent enough to add these currencies in their diversified portfolios as an asset,<br> as the size of the market does not represent a systemic risk. Cryptocurrency employs the use of cryptography that assures high-security processes and verifies transactions personal to each user. Hence,<br> counterfeiting and anonymous transactions are impossible to achieve.\n\nWhile this revolution is gaining wide acceptance,<br> IDAP,<br> an upcoming International Digital Asset Platform(IDAP),<br> where one can access the diverse trading and investment instruments to participate in the ever-growing cryptocurrency market has arrived.\n\nBefore I take you on this voyage,<br> please check out this video presentation\n\nhttps:\/\/vimeo.com\/271257847\n\nNow that I have your attention,<br> let\u2019s get right to it.\n\nWhat exactly is IDAP?\n\nidap.io is an International Digital Asset Platform,<br> which aims to provide a complete Derivatives Ecosystem for Crypto Assets,<br> offering Futures,<br> calendar & butterfly spreads,<br> options,<br> and swaps among major trading products. idap.io exchange also supports spot trading,<br> P2P lending and ETFs. \n\nAdditionally,<br> it is providing an ICO venture fund with a focus on retail investors. idap.io platform provides a Point-and-Click Ladder based Trading Interface through its Desktop Application. Its simulator tool aids beginners in learning futures trading. idap.io will issue its own token,<br> the IDAP token (IDAP),<br> which will be based on Ethereum blockchain (ERC 20). IDAP token holders will get 50% discount in trading and management fees if paid in IDAP tokens. There will be zero trading fees for ICO contributors.\n\nThe International Digital Assets Platform (IDAP) is the first self-contained ecosystem for the cryptocurrencies derivatives trading market. Contained within this ecosystem are the IDAP Exchange,<br> the IDAP Desktop App with advanced trading tools and most importantly,<br> crypto derivatives instruments by IDAP,<br> for trading and investment. By bringing together individuals and institutions in need of risk management or with an eye at profit via risk acceptance,<br> our goal is to become the most diverse crypto derivatives marketplace for buyers and sellers.\n\nThe volatility of the current crypto market has made it imperative that the issue of risk management and hedging options for crypto assets be addressed without delay. Traders being free to take long and short positions and to bet in both the bull and bear run of the market,<br> thus being able to diversify and optimise their portfolio performance,<br> are all made possible by the introduction of a highly diverse and wide range of multiple crypto based derivatives products,<br> including Futures,<br> Spreads,<br> Swaps,<br> Options and Crypto Indices. Moreover,<br> the trading of these above mentioned financial instruments deepens the liquidity of the market,<br> in effect stabilising the price points of the underlying crypto assets. This is what the IDAP ecosystem for crypto derivatives market trading has exclusively been built to achieve.\n\nThe Vision\n\nOur vision is to transform the crypto economy. We endeavour to create a secure,<br> robust,<br> customer centric and full-featured crypto asset market exchange that enables investors to experience numerous diversified trading and investment opportunities under a single roof.\n\nFeatures\n\nDesktop Applications\n\nIDAP will provide its customers,<br> the trader-friendly \u2018Desktop App\u2019 with custom features for a seamless trading experience. In conjunction with our flagship trading tool,<br> the Desktop App,<br> customers will also have access to our exchange via the in-browser trading app as well as the mobile app. The full features list of IDAP Desktop App includes:Order entry form supporting Market,<br> Limit,<br> Stop-Loss,<br> Stop-Limit,<br> Iceberg,<br> trailing stops,<br> OCO,<br> bracket and various other conditional orders.\n\nReal-time market data charts supported by generic and advanced technical indicators and analysis.\n\nAccount and position monitoring,<br> order book,<br> trade history,<br> fill book etc.\n\nThe custom arrangement of market data,<br> order and trade history,<br> positions,<br> charts and technical tools,<br> other data items and color schematics.\n\nLadder\n\nFor the assistance of intraday and professional traders,<br> IDAP is introducing ladder trading to crypto market. Being one of the key features of this crypto trade & exchange platform,<br> the IDAP Ladder will enable the traders to view price action,<br> best bid and offer,<br> last trades\u2019 price and quantity,<br> total traded volume at each price,<br> high and low market points of the day,<br> depth of market orders and various other critical data related to trading. The IDAP ladder will allow the traders to submit,<br> modify and cancel orders with one click (Power of Point-and-Click Trading). The IDAP ladder will also help in visualizing the relative position of correlated products,<br> neatly displaying this data in the user dashboard.\n\nMatrix\n\nThe IDAP Matrix will serve as a crucial trading tool. With the IDAP Matrix,<br> traders will be able to view market data for all contract expirations of an asset as well as market data for exchange-quoted spreads for the underlying asset,<br> all in one window. Traders will have the ease to trade,<br> place,<br> modify and cancel orders directly through the IDAP Matrix.\n\nSpreader\n\nThe IDAP Spreader will allow traders to create,<br> manage and execute synthetic spreads based on futures contract available on the IDAP exchange. Synthetic spreads are Intermarket spreads,<br> whose prices are not quoted on the exchange itself but have to be calculated based on the underlying contracts listed on the exchange. For example,<br> a user can create synthetic spreads of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) through the exchange quoted spreads of BTC and ETH. This is another distinguishing feature that is unique to IDAP exchange ecosystem.\n\nSimulator\n\nAnother key feature by IDAP to disrupt the crypto trading domain is the IDAP Simulator. The idea is to introduce a \u2018Trading Simulator\u2019 crafted especially for crypto trading. The only difference will be that the user will get a real-life experience of the crypto assets market without using \u2018real funds.\u2019 IDAP hopes to create a band of enthusiasts and amateur traders that can benefit from IDAP simulator and step into the real market,<br> once they are ready.The IDAP Simulator is ideal for those who are new to futures trading and wish to familiarize themselves with market action and trading without risking real cryptocurrency. Currently,<br> no other crypto exchange platform is offering such a feature to enable learning for trading beginners. IDAP Simulator will replicate real-time market data and trading conditions to help users understand the market dynamics,<br> general market behavior and how to manage trade and associated risks. This is yet another USP of our platform for facilitating education and learning for traders,<br> enabling them to gain virtual experience in the crypto asset trading.\n\nhttp:\/\/telegra.ph\/file\/c24dc807ad9af888a6456.png\n\nIDAP Ecosystem\n\nIDAP is solving all the problems of the current trading crypto market and providing users diversified trading and investment instruments,<br> advanced tools,<br> very good customer support to resolve any query at any time and increased security to the users and their transactions. IDAP ecosystem is giving users the extended product offering which consists of the following:\n\nSpot Trading\n\nIDAP will provide users with spot trading for crypto coins and tokens where users can have choice of both crypto-crypto and crypto-fiat pairs. Initially pairs like BTC\/Altcoin,<br> ETH\/Altcoin and IDAP\/Altcoin will be offered in this ecosystem.\n\nOTC Trading\n\nThis will give the users an access to over the counter (OTC) trading with a very user-friendly interface.\n\nP2P Lending\n\nThe ecosystem also has borrowing and lending feature where borrowers and lenders can directly connect,<br> and lenders can lend money to borrowers. Here P2P lending can be done in both fiat and cryptocurrency.\n\nICO Incubation\n\nThe selected upcoming projects will get assistance in this platform. Entrepreneurs,<br> advisors,<br> industry leaders and developers will provide these projects technical consultation,<br> resources and initial funds to help them grow.\n\nExchange Features\n\nIDAP Institutional Grade Matching Engine\n\nThe matching engine supports Direct Market Access (DMA),<br> Central Limit Order Book (CLOB),<br> Request for Quote (RFQ),<br> Implied Orders functionality for futures market,<br> fast price-time priority and pro-rata Orders Matching Algorithm,<br> industry standard FIX-based interfaces for order management,<br> advanced conditional orders like OCO (One-Cancels-the others),<br> Brackets,<br> icebergs orders and more. IDAP matching engine is a blazingly fast and highly scalable order matching server with the throughput of more than 1 million transactions per second equipped with advanced risk controls.\n\nSOR And TOMS\n\nIncreasing the number of various cryptocurrency exchanges leads to liquidity fragmentation. To tackle the issue of thin liquidity and even benefit from such a situation,<br> IDAP will implement Smart Order Routing to choose the best prices and order distribution to manage liquidity. Smart Order Routing will be performed by IDAP's Smart Order Routers,<br> a system designed to analyze the order books of other exchanges and perform best possible order placement. SOR will optimize execution of trades by using advanced routing rules and algorithms when directing orders to various parties including exchange,<br> users,<br> and ECNs. IDAP Trade Order Management system (TOMS) will provide a high-end order management via FIX interfaces and will also make the order history database accessible\n\nSecurity Measures\n\nIDAP has identified and reviewed the industry best practices in terms of security measures and designed our platform to include top-level security features to safeguard both the client\u2019s funds and trading operations from hostile penetration attempts. Some of the key security features include:Secure cold storage with cold wallet management Cryptocurrency Security Standard (CCSS)\n\nThird-party security auditing for Level 1 CCSS certified platform\n\nInsurance of online\/hot wallets\n\nUp to 3-Factor Authentication\n\nMulti-Firewall Protection\n\nDDoS prevention\n\nOWASP Top 10 Compliant\n\nExtended Validation SSL Certificate\n\nCustomer Support\n\nDespite the boom in cryptocurrencies and enthusiasm amongst people over the past few years,<br> crypto exchanges have been constantly reported to deliver a poor customer service. For instance,<br> many of them fail to address general trade issues over the phone simply because there is a lack of manpower or knowledgeable employees. Moreover,<br> during a technical malfunction,<br> crypto exchanges suspend new account registration and fail to timely alert their customers. Eventually,<br> they are unable to address all the inbound queries from the traders using their platform. There is a strong need for excellent customer support delivery. Therefore,<br> IDAP has a strong focus on delivering a strong customer support 24\/7. Some of the features of IDAP\u2019s customer support plan are:Customer usability product design\n\nCustomer feedback has driven product improvement\n\nMultiple platform support\n\nDetailed FAQ section and Tutorials\n\n24\/7 customer desk\n\nThe IDAP Token\n\nIDAP token is ERC20 token based on Ethereum blockchain.
