What to listen for* How Loopring’s DEX protocol built on Ethereum differs from their competitors. * Why their unique order matching model creates rings or combinatorial matching across disparate trades to find greater liquidity. * How Loopring version 3.0 takes everything off-chain using ZkSnarks to address scalability for high volume, high-frequency DEX trading. * Why ZkRollups create Ethereum level security off-chain before settlement happens onto Ethereum. * How Loopring’s smart contract logic stores the account balances on chain in Ethereum in the smart contract even though trades/orders happen off-chain. * Why their trustless setup matters and the differences between OptimisticRollups (recently launched at DevCon)/ZkRollups (currently used in Loopring). * Why we need to do a better job of communicating and reaching out to CeFi (Centralised Finance) people to explain DeFi and its use cases.
