How Does the Ouinex Ecosystem Work?
Ouinex is a crypto and derivatives trading platform built on a simple principle: the more the community engages, the more everyone benefits. By aligning platform health with user rewards, we’ve created an environment where active participation lowers costs and boosts returns for everyone. At the heart of this cycle is our native token, $OUIX.
Learn how you are rewarded when you trade with Ouinex.
Key Takeaways:
- Ouinex is a CEX (regulated exchange) offering multi-asset access: spot crypto, crypto perpetuals, and traditional financial assets
- In addition to being an exchange, Ouinex offers a complete trading ecosystem with a Launchpad, SocialFi feature, and Earn pools
- Ouinex was built around a community trading model: the more everyone trades and stakes, the higher the OUIXIndex and the lower your spot trading fees and the higher your yield boosts
- Ouinex rewards individual traders too: your OUIXPower measures how much you trade and stake the native token, $OUIX. The higher your OUIXPower, the more rewards you unlock
- SocialFi further rewards the community by letting them farm crypto by being social, performing trading tasks, and doing referrals
The 2-Minute Sum Up
What Ouinex Is: The Ecosystem
Ouinex is a multi-asset exchange (CEX), that offers spot crypto, crypto perps, and traditional financial (TradFi) derivatives: stocks, stock indices, commodities, and Forex.
In addition, Ouinex has a launchpad (exclusive access to new tokens), SocialFi (earn crypto by being social), and Earn pools (get up to 10% APY on USDC).
We also have our own native crypto token that is at the heart of our ecosystem: $OUIX.
How You Benefit From the Ecosystem
Beyond providing a bridge between TradFi and crypto markets, Ouinex is designed to reward the community as the platform grows. We measure the collective health of the ecosystem and pass those gains directly back to our users.
We have two “indices” we use on Ouinex.
One measures your personal contribution to the platform, the OUIXPower. The higher it gets, the more rewards you unlock, and the lower your spot trading fees get.
The other measures everyone’s contribution to the platform, the OUIXIndex. The higher it gets, the lower everyone’s spot trading fees, and the higher the APYs for our Earn pools get.
But community rewards don’t stop there. Thanks to SocialFi you can earn NEX Points by performing quests. For example, by referring friends, posting about Ouinex on social media, or increasing your trading volume. At the end of each campaign, the NEX Points are converted to crypto.
In short, we reward you for just about anything you do that improves the health of the Ouinex platform.
Most platforms reward you if you have a large trading volume. The difference between Ouinex and other exchanges is that even small traders can benefit: both from the OUIXIndex and SocialFi.

The Ouinex Ecosystem in More Depth
Let’s dig a bit deeper into the Ouinex ecosystem and our community trading model.
Understanding Ouinex
Ouinex is a centralized exchange (a CEX, meaning it’s regulated) with multi-asset access. You can trade:
- Spot crypto
- Crypto perpetuals (with leverage)
- TradFi derivatives: commodities, stocks, indices, and Forex (with leverage)
When it comes to TradFi derivatives, there are no fees, and you can use crypto as collateral.
Ouinex also offers:
- A native token: $OUIX
- Earn pools: passive income, with up to 10% APY on USDC
- Launchpad: exclusive access to new tokens that have been thoroughly vetted (we do not agree with pump and dump schemes, or poor tokenomics)
- SocialFi: where you perform quests to earn NEX Points (such as referring friends, sharing social posts, or trading), which are converted to crypto at the end of each campaign
What makes Ouinex different is that the ecosystem is not isolated to crypto-only activity, or TradFi only. Nor does it stop at being an exchange: it offers earn pools, a launchpad, and is the first CEX with a built-in SocialFi feature.
Community Trading
We want to reward our community when they choose to use our services, or they share their experience with friends and family on social media, or through referrals. That’s why we established the OUIXIndex and the OUIXPower, as well as a built-in SocialFi feature.
What’s so unique with Ouinex is that we don’t just reward you when you trade and stake more, but when everyone trades and stakes more. That’s essentially what the OUIXIndex is all about. Instead of spending our earnings on, say, sponsoring sports stars so we look good, we spend them on you by lowering fees and increasing yield boosts.
In addition we have SocialFi where you can farm crypto for free by sharing our social posts, increasing your trading volume, solving trading riddles, or referring friends. Again, this means that not only big traders win, but loyal traders.
The OUIXPower
You have your very own OUIXPower that measures your personal contribution to Ouinex. You start at LVL 0 and go to LVL 5. What LVL you are on is dependent on how much you trade, and how much $OUIX you stake and for how long.
The higher your OUIXPower, the better your:
- Spot trading fees (remember there are no fees at all on TradFi derivatives)
- Yield boost for Earn pools: from 10% at LVL 1 to 70% at LVL 5
- Discount on $OUIX purchases
- Access to certain Launchpad projects (for some projects you get faster access and/or the ability to buy more tokens)
The fastest way to increase your OUIXPower is to buy and stake $OUIX.

The OUIXIndex
The OUIXIndex isn't just a number: it’s a direct reflection of our ecosystem’s health. The index reflects overall platform activity, trading volume, and the health of the $OUIX token.
A higher OUIXIndex unlocks:
- Lower Trading Fees: Your spot fees drop
- Yield Boosts: Higher APY on Ouinex Earn pools.
How it works: If the OUIXIndex were at 0, base spot trading fees (LVL 0 OUIXPower) would be 0.18%. However, because our current index is at 7.4, those same fees have already dropped to 0.132%. For our most loyal traders at LVL 5 (i.e. their OUIXPower is at LVL 5), current spot fees are as low as 0.055%.
The idea behind the OUIXIndex is to give back to our community. When we thrive, you thrive.
SocialFi
On SocialFi you earn NEX Points by performing quests/tasks. At the end of each SocialFi campaign the NEX Points get converted to crypto.
Farm crypto by:
- Solving trading riddles
- Sharing and creating content around Ouinex on social media
- Referring friends (if you do, you earn a percentage of their NEX Points for life, too)
- Doing trades on Demo
- Trading on the live platform (the higher your trading volume, the more NEX Points you earn, which you can track with the Volume Tracker on your SocialFi dashboard)
As you can see, you don’t need to be rich to start earning crypto!

Please note that to claim your crypto, you need to make a minimum deposit of $10 and the minimum withdrawal is $10. We do this because we need to keep bots out.
$OUIX: The Ouinex Native Token
At the heart of the Ouinex ecosystem is our native token, $OUIX.
$OUIX was built around very sound tokenomics and early investors have agreed to long vesting and cliff-periods. In addition, over 80% of early investors chose to stake their token, meaning there is no fear of panic selling as the token is listed.
We built Ouinex by offering pre-sales of $OUIX, selling 65M+ tokens to active traders, not VCs.
Unlike other token creators and exchanges, we have strict policies against pump and dump schemes. $OUIX is an exchange token like BNB and built for longevity, not a quick fix.
Other Ouinex Advantages
Ouinex was built with fairness and transparency in mind. We created a no-CLOB execution model to ensure this. You can read more about the CLOB and our unique no-CLOB model here, but in short:
- No hidden fees: You see your estimated slippage and spread in real-time as you trade
- Slippage control: Set the maximum negative slippage you allow
- No competing against big financial institutions (and losing): Our no-CLOB model ensure you don’t have to compete against institutions that are faster than you (and therefore gets better pricing while you get slipped)
- No spoofing, or stop hunting: No fake orders in the order book, no manipulating the market to trigger stop loss orders
- Fast execution, tight spreads, low slippage: No wasting time or money
In addition, Ouinex offers:
- No commission on TradFi derivatives
- Fully customizable trading dashboard
- Multi-panel layout
- In-app news
- The ability to trade from charts and use advanced trading orders
- Advanced trading orders
- Live PnL
In Closing
In closing, Ouinex is a community driven platform where user activity directly reduces costs and increases yields. By bridging crypto and TradFi with a reward model that favors both individual and collective participation, we ensure a transparent environment for all traders. Join Ouinex today to benefit from a trading ecosystem built on transparency and shared growth.
