About RuDEX
RuDEX, launched in April 2017, is a centralized crypto exchange based in Russia, despite its name suggesting a decentralized setup (Ru for Russia, DEX for decentralized exchange). Built on the BitShares network, it aimed to serve Russian clients but welcomed global traders, including U.S. investors. It’s been flagged as inactive since March 2023 due to extremely low trading volume, making it an unreliable option now.
What Made It Unique
- Trading Pairs: Supported 14 coins and 28 pairs, like BTC, ETH, and DGB, with a focus on smaller assets. Its 24-hour volume dropped to $1,196.71 by March 2023.
- Low Fees: Charged a flat 0.05% for makers and takers on most pairs (e.g., BTC, ETH), well below the 0.25% industry average. Withdrawals were cheap too—0.0005 BTC, 40% less than the global average.
- BitShares Backbone: Operated on the BitShares blockchain, offering gateway services for deposits and withdrawals, but this also meant dependency on the network’s stability.
- No Fiat Deposits: Crypto-only platform, so new investors without existing crypto couldn’t easily join.
- Simple Interface: Featured a basic trading view with an order book, price chart, and trade history, though its presentation (like the fee structure) was often confusing for newcomers.
Things to Keep in Mind
- Inactive Since 2023: Marked as “dead” by Cryptowisser due to low liquidity, making order execution nearly impossible. The website might still be up, but it’s not practical for trading.
- Centralized Reality: Despite the DEX branding, it’s centralized, lacking the security benefits of true decentralization—like no single point of failure—while still having risks like password loss with no recovery support.
- Transparency Issues: The fee structure was overly complicated, and the focus on Russian clients (with some untranslated FAQ sections) didn’t help accessibility for global users.
- User Risks: As a centralized exchange with no regulation, funds were at risk if the platform failed or got hacked. Its BitShares dependency also meant network issues could halt operations.
- Not Beginner-Friendly: The platform’s complexity and lack of fiat support made it tough for crypto newbies to navigate.
RuDEX had some appeal with low fees and a niche focus, but its inactivity since 2023 and operational challenges make it a no-go for trading today. Look for active, regulated exchanges like Binance or Kraken instead.
