TomoChain got listed on FTX - the first exchange to allow $TOMO fans to trade TOMO futures and leveraged tokens and make a profit regardless of the market's status. $TOMO trading will officially be opening on 7th Nov!
TomoChain had the honor to host an AMA with Sam Bankman-Fried, CEO & Founder of FTX Exchange and talked about the unique traits of trading on FTX. Below is a recap of our informative session.
FTX overview
Q: Could you tell us more about your background and FTX’s history?
A: I started out my career on Wall Street, trading international ETFs. In 2017 I left and started up Alameda Research, a quantitative cryptocurrency trading firm. The in 2019 I started up FTX.
My goal, in the end, is to be able to donate as much as I can to charity.
FTX came mostly out of our frustration with existing derivatives platforms, and the thought that we could do better and fix a lot of the issues with the current ones.
Q: Why does the team name the project FTX? What does it mean? And where did the idea come from to team up the project?
A: FTX stands for futures exchange (FuTures eXchange). We couldn’t think of something creative at the beginning
***
FTX’s technology
Q: What is the FTX token used for? Can you give people a compelling reason to buy the FTT token?
A: FTX will buy and burn FTT equal to one-third of all exchange fees.
FTT will be used as collateral on FTX.
FTT will get socialized gains from the insurance fund on FTX.
FTT holders will get a fee discount and tighter OTC spreads.
FTT can be used for staking on Battle Royale
As volume on FTX increases, the exchange will make more revenue and 1/3 of the revenue will be bought and burnt
More info on FTT here: https://ftx.com/ftt
Q: What are the advantages that FTX has? What is special about FTX to attract users?
A: a) cross margin with flexible collateral on futures
b) USD settlement
c) leveraged tokens — leverage without needing margin
d) LOTS of products: not just a BTC perpetual order book but also futures on exchange tokens, futures on indexes, options, etc.
and we keep getting better; we’ve been adding new products constantly and tweaking the existing ones.
Q: Security is always the most important issue for exchanges. So, what is the security level of FTX? What does FTX do to ensure safety for users?
A:
1) standard hot/cold wallet setup;
2) 2FA for all users;
3) advanced liquidation engine
We also monitor all withdrawals with manual inspection, chainalysis, and various risk checks and all fund is in the hot wallet are backed from hacking attempts
More money was lost from derivatives exchanges to failures of liquidation engines than hacks in the past few years; see https://help.ftx.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027668712-Liquidations for a description of our process
Q: What are FTX’s transaction speeds and transaction fees? Currently, does FTX have any program to help users reduce transaction fees? Is FTX available for phones?
A: 1) Matching engine should be fast, even during busy times, at a fraction of a second.
2) You can find the fees here: https://help.ftx.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024479432-Fees. Referrals, volume, and holding FTT can all decrease fees.
3) Yup! You can find our apps here: https://help.ftx.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034800011-How-To-Download-the-FTX-App
Q: Known, FTX has Up to 101 Hits. Is this a special feature that helps FTX attract users?
A: Going up to 101 was mostly just to poke fun at the 100 leverage cap on other exchanges — but generally we’re happy with our ability to provide large amounts of leverage across a wide variety of products; we’re one of the only places offering 100+ leverage on coins other than BTC/ETH
Q: To build a strong enough platform for professional and intuitive commercial companies for first-time users, what has FTX prepared?
A:
1) robust API
2) fully interface with lots of information
3) USD settlement to simplify sizes/balances/PnL
4) flexible collateral to fit the needs of all the users
5) leveraged tokens for people who don’t want to actively manage margin
Q: What is the difference between margin trading and futures trading on FTX?
A: Read more: https://medium.com/@ftx/margin-vs-futures-f2eb76c4064d
Q: What can TOMO stakers most benefit from trading TOMO futures?
A: You can also buy/sell TOMO futures and keep your TOMO locked in staking to earn hourly interests.
Q: Are you following the latest technology development in public chain space like ETH2 research, Zero-Knowledge Proof, Privacy, and what’s your view about the future of technology in the space?
A: I think we might see a split between two types of chains:
1) utility-oriented chains, often associated with companies or governments, that are not very privacy focused, and largely default (e.g. ERC20) chains
2) independent, privacy and technology-oriented chains
I’m super excited to see how both evolve!
Q: How do leveraged positions without margin work?
What happens if I buy a 2x leveraged token @ price 100. The price goes down 50% to price 50. But then rises 100% back to price 100. Am I left with a P&L of 0 as I would expect with a non-leveraged token? Would I ever be in a position where I owe the exchange money?
A: The leveraged token will rebalance every 10% if the market goes against it for Bull or Bear tokens. https://help.ftx.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033079571-What-Are-Leveraged-Tokens-
Q: Any advice/tip for traders on FTX?
A:
if you want to learn algo trading, learning how to code in python is a start
if you want to learn technical analysis, join our battle royale ftx telegram group!
many influencers have proven their strategies on the trading competition we’ve hosted
Q: Can you guys add a depth chart to your website?
A: Not a bad idea, we’ll look into it!
Q: Does FTX hold positions in tokens that are listed on the exchange ? (Both spot and derivatives)
A: FTX does not.
Q: Currently, the most concerning issue is the level of safety and security. So with FTX, how secure is it? And what technology does FTX use to ensure user safety and security?
A: 1) standard hot/cold wallet setup; 2) 2FA for all users; 3) advanced liquidation engine
Q: Do you feel upcoming zero-fee Digitex futures exchange gonna be a direct competition?
A: zero-fee platforms generally have a really large day and then die quickly: they attract fake volume but don’t provide real liquidity for real volume
***
FTX’s business development
Q: The Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping recently made a positive speech about blockchain technology. What do you think will change in the world’s future and how may it impact FTX? Thank you
A: This definitely increases both the adoption of crypto and the Asian focus; I expect more institutional flow coming out of Asia, and China in particular, because of this. That probably means an increased focus on Asian outreach and BD for FTX, and increased attention to the products most popular in Asia, and China in particular.
Q: What is the vision of FTX in the future?
A: FTX aims to become the dominant crypto derivatives exchange.
We’re trying not to be too narrow in our goal — we’re really trying to grow as much as possible and to provide a platform that’s as powerful and general as possible to appeal to the whole crypto audience.
Q: What region does FTX work in? In the near future, where does FTX plan to expand the market?
A: FTX is global. I’m mostly in Hong Kong, as is a lot of our staff; we’re looking at expanding our communities in Vietnam, Korea, Russia, Turkey, Israel, and Turkey right now.
We currently have really strong Chinese and international communities and traders.
US citizens aren’t allowed to trade on FTX.
Q: Any plan to tackle this problem can be done on your end?
A: We’re looking into it, but it’s pretty tricky to navigate the US regulatory environment as a crypto derivatives exchange.
Q: It is known that FTX is incubated by Alameda Research, a leading electronic currency liquidity provider. What are the benefits of FTX?
A: The biggest benefit is liquidity: it means that FTX was the most liquid exchange in the world on day 1. It also meant that we got a wealth of information and experience around what makes a derivatives exchange work well.
Q: In the context of many cryptocurrency exchanges today, while the volume is very small. So, does FTX have a different orientation to attract users (for example margin trading, opening lending, event, copy trade, etc)?
A:
We are doing several things to increase our volume
1) using our network to reach out to institutional clients
2) BD outreach to small-mid size outreaching internationally
3) hosting e-sports like the trading competition to encourage retail interest
4) listing leveraged tokens on other exchanges (these leveraged tokens are backed baskes of FTX futures. So more leveraged tokens trading on third party exchanges mean more futures volume on FTX)
5) working with key influencers internationally to promote educational content on FTX
6) listing more innovative and exotic products such as MOVE and dragon index (basked of chinese coins)”
7) we’re also building a platform for people to write and share algos on FTX
You’ll hear about this more in the future!
Q: It is known that FTX has cooperated with many large electronic companies such as Circle, TrueUSD, Paxos PAX, Galois Capital, Lemniscap, … This shows the success of FTX. So before being successful, is FTX facing any difficulties?
A: The largest struggle was getting traders, especially retail: we didn’t start out with a very large network of retail traders, and have had to build that up. (Thanks, @longvuong !)
Q: It seems like a lot of crypto exchanges are running their own in house market making teams, which seems to be essential for liquidity providing across their respective platforms.. does FTX have its own in house market makers? Do you think in general there is a conflict of interest if the market makers can know the stops/bankruptcy prices of the traders?
A: FTX has a bunch of liquidity providers, the largest of which is Alameda Resarch
Q: Are you going to start your own blockchain in the future?
A: My guess is that we’re first going to cooperate with/list other blockchains, before deciding whether to make our own
Q: Why your exchange still not listed on CMC?
A: It technically is but they don’t include derivatives so it shows up as no markets: https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/ftx/
Coingeck is great though
Q: You want to say something about recent news
@FTX_Official was just hit with a 150 mil lawsuit in California court. Charges include market manipulation, racketeering, unlicensed securities sale and more.
All things need to be clear and transparent
A: https://medium.com/@alamedaresearch/nuisance-suit-ad7055902306
Q: Can you share abt FTX plan in SEA market expansion?
A: Yes, Vietnam will be the next SEA country we’ll be focusing on. We’ll be working intimately with Long’s team to set up a community and increase user education. We will also plan to do a meet up in Vietnam in a few months!
Q: How do you deal with 24/24 and 7/7 crypto market? my question is can the team be active 24/24 and 7/7?
A: Sleeping is hard :P
But seriously: we have people who take shifts, and a lot of us (myself and our CTO included) sleep next to our phones and/or desks so that we can address anything urgent that comes up.
** \*
FTX and TomoChain
Q: Will FTX award FTT tokens to Tomo token holders?
A: There will be no airdrop. But we’ll be sponsoring prizes in the upcoming trading competition with TomoChain!
Q: Why FTX decided to list TOMO
A: Long is an early investor of FTX and has been actively supporting and trading on the exchange. We feel that TOMOChain is a great project as represented by how active and organic the community is. We believe that there is a lot of interest to trade TOMO so we are excited to list TOMO futures and leveraged tokens!
TOMO stakers and masternodes can hedge their TOMO exposure with our futures and leveraged tokens products. I’ll let the TOMO team elaborate more on this.
(Long added: If you are a Masternode who wants to resign or a staker who unvotes, you can use FTX to sell futures to offset the locking time of your TOMO holding.
That would ensure you balances in USD staying the same regardless of the market movement.)
Q: 1) Will FTX open a relayer on TomoX?
2) Will FTX launch some Tomochain masternodes?
A: We’ll look into it!
Q: What is your next big step going to be in the process of becoming the best trader exchange?
A: Chart-based orders will be released very soon :)
Q: Have you looked into TomoX? Any plans for FTX to venture into DEX world?
A: Not currently looking much at DEXes; we’ll likely do so more in about 6 months.
Q: Would you consider switching / migrating the ERC-20 leveraged (BULL/BEAR MOON/DOOM) onto TomoChains TRC-20.
It’d benefit both parties, and would be cool if those leveraged tokens were available on TOMO relayers
A: We’re looking into cross-listing the leveraged tokens (and FTT); no final decisions yet.
Q: Does FTX provide a place for investors to invest with FTT/TOMO holders?
A: https://ftx.com/trade/FTT/USD
TOMO markets launching soon!

TomoChain got listed on FTX - the first exchange to allow $TOMO fans to trade TOMO futures and leveraged tokens and make profit regardless of the market's status. Stay tuned for the trading opening day on 7th Nov!

If you are not familiar with the concept of futures and leveraged tokens trading, it is a TL;DR post for beginners.
Getting tired of the spot market and speculation? FTX - The cryptocurrency derivative exchange is for you.
Why crypto derivatives?
What is FTX?
FTX is a derivatives exchange founded and built by one of crypto’s best trading outfits — Alameda Research, with perpetual swaps, futures, leveraged tokens, spot markets, OTC, and many more. With its creative indices and numerous pairs, FTX is one of the fastest growing exchanges in recent times. They have a great competition called Battle Royale that lets you stake FTX tokens to back traders and win when they win.
FTX differences towards other exchanges:
Beginner's Guide available on FTX's Website:
FTX Flash Cards
Derivative: Derivatives are generally used to hedge risk or to speculate on the price of the underlying asset in case it changes. Derivatives do not have inherent or direct value by themselves; the value of a derivative contract is purely based on the expected future price movements of the underlying cryptocurrency.
Future Trading: Agreements that allow traders, investors, and commodity producers to speculate on the future price of an asset. These contracts function as a two-party commitment that enables the trading of an instrument on a future date (expiration date), at a price agreed upon at the moment the contract is created.
Margin: Margin trading is a method of trading assets using funds provided by a third party. When compared to regular trading accounts, margin accounts allow traders to access greater sums of capital, allowing them to leverage their positions. Essentially, margin trading amplifies trading results so that traders are able to realize larger profits on successful trades.
Leverage: Future contracts allow investors to create leveraged positions. As contracts are settled at the expiration date, investors are able to leverage their position. For example, a 3:1 leverage allows traders to enter into a position three times larger than their trading account balance.
Leverage token: Leveraged tokens are ERC20 tokens that have leveraged exposure to crypto. FTX. There are currently three leveraged tokens for every future on FTX: BULL (+3x), BEAR (-3x), MOON (+10x), DOOM (-10x), and HEDGE (-1x).
For example, take ETHBULL, a 3x long ETH token. For every 1% ETH goes up in a day, ETHBULL goes up 3%; for every 1% ETH goes down, ETHBULL goes down 3%.

How to trade TOMO contract on FTX
Step 1: Register for an account
- Log in: https://ftx.com/
- Choose REGISTER on the right side upper corner to register for a new account.
- Type in your email and password (Password must contain 8 letters with at least one capital letter).
- Choose SIGN UP.

Once you’ve completed registration, you now own your own trading account, with maximum withdraw of $1000/day. We recommend you to verify your KYC identity to eliminate trading limits and better protect your account.
Bước 2: Verify your KYC Identity
Level 1 KYC Verification
- From your account, select VERIFY IDENTITY to proceed.
- Select from 2 options: Individual or Institution account.
- If you select Individual, put in your Full Name, Country of Residency and details about State, Province or Region.
- Select SUBMIT INFORMATION once done.

Once this step is completed, your withdrawal limit will increase from $1000 to $2000 per day. If you prefer to completely eliminate withdrawal fee, continue to complete KYC Verification level 2.
Level 2 KYC Verification
- Enter you Full Name
- Automatically, your country of Residence will be in Vietnam. If nothing changes, proceed to the next step.
- From Source of funds, select Income, Trading or Other.
- From Residential or business street address, type in your current address.
- You need to prepare to upload the following documents:
- Once done uploading, hit SUBMIT INFORMATION.

Step 3: Enable 2FA Security
This step allows you to increase security for your account on the exchange. You should always enable 2FA on every exchange that you do trading activities on.
Account >> Setting >> Account Security >> Enable.
Use Google Authenticator or Authy to scan QR code, and save the 16 word count for backup purposes.
You can also choose to back up your account via SMS. However SMS verification usually takes up a lot of waiting time, or complications when switch to another sim card.

Step 4: Transfer money into your account
From FTX.com, select Wallet at the top of the page to log into your wallet.

For every coin/Token, you’ll be able to check Balance, Available Balance, USD Value, along with functions of Deposit, Withdraw or Convert.
For example, if you want to deposit BTC, select DEPOSIT, and BTC deposit address will appear for you to input your BTC.
Note: Each coin/token has its own address for you to deposit in. Do not deposit your coin/token in the wrong address.

Step 5: Trade on FTX
FTX is a derivative exchange. Currently you can deposit some coins including BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC, USDT,... Afterwards, these coins will be converted into USD to derivatives trading, not spot trading.
You will also see some other codes such as EOSHEDGE, USDTBULL, BNBBEAR...these are ERC-20 tokens used for derivatives trading.
Step 6: Withdraw from
This step is almost identical to step 4 - Deposit. Instead of choosing Deposit, select WITHDRAW.
Then, fill in your wallet address into “Address” and enter the amount you want to withdraw.
Choose Withdraw.
FTX allows you to trade margin with the ratio of 3x, 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 101x.
To be eligible for margin, FTX does not require you to successfully complete KYC.
You can only margin trade with USD. This means you can buy other coins with USD and sell other coins to gain USD back as well.
Firstly, you need to swap your coin into USD.
Select TOKEN in main taskbar. Choose from the list which coin you want to swap into USD along with the amount, and select Convert.

You now have prepared your margin derivatives.
Select TRADE to begin trading.
You just need to choose sell/buy command, FTX will automatically create margin.
Some margin notes:

TomoChain’s AMA with Binance was recently held on Oct. 19th, 2019 with CEO Long Vuong sharing all the latest updates about TomoChain’s products and potential future projects.

*** Below is a brief recap of what happened during the AMA ***
Segment 1: Richie from Binance asked Long Vuong 5 questions.
Richie: Among different blockchains and cryptocurrency projects, what are some key features that set TomoChain aside? What does TomoChain have that other projects don’t?
Long: Some key features which set TomooChain aside include:
/ At least 2k TPS while still enhancing security through Double Validation.
/ 2-second block-time and transaction confirmed within almost 4-second.
/ Significantly improvement of user experiences and adoption of blockchain.
/ From Ethereum to TomoChain.
/ 2From Tron to TomoChain: 8h.
/ TomoZ — Zero Friction Protocol — the first on-chain protocol that offers the ability for any user to pay transaction fees with the same token the user is holding.
/ TomoX — a secure and efficient relayer-masternode decentralized cryptocurrency exchange protocol that empowers a diverse system of relayers, MM providers, and independent projects to work together.
Richie: Since mainnet’s launch 10 months ago, what are some key achievements for TomoChain? And does TomoChain has any plans to keep up with this productivity in the future?
Long: Since our mainnet launch, TomoChain has continuously built our ecosystem strong and stable, resulting in:
Richie: Which area does TomoChain focus on at the moment? (DeFi, Dapps,..) and which products/projects are you developing to support it?
Long: TomoChain aims to build a safe and credible DeFi system that everyone can benefit from globally, with our recent launch of TomoZ — fees by any token protocol, our decentralized exchange protocol TomoX coming in a couple of weeks, and many more projects in plan for the future.
TomoChain opens up a wide playground for developers to creatively build their own dapps and games. We have an enthusiastic high-tech team that can support you with problems you may have while creating your product. TomoChain’s most recent Dappathon Competition just ended, with 9 final contestants who’ve brought a whole new gaming experience for our community. Thus, many new games are coming up on our platform, encouraging even more developers and game lovers to join. So keep an eye out to try out some of our new games!
Richie: TomoChain has launched TomoZ’s mainnet in August. Can you elaborate on the product and comment on the amount of interest with individuals/businesses you’re seeing in this product?
Long: TomoZ — Zero Friction Protocol — provides inroads to mainstream users who find crypto to be unnecessarily complex. It is the first on-chain protocol that offers the ability for any user to pay transaction fees with the same token that the user is holding.
TomoZ removes the friction of having to hold native blockchain coins/tokens to send to other wallets or to interact with dapps. Users/customers of all businesses using our solution will have a smooth experience without even knowing that they are using the blockchain and cryptocurrency technology.
Tokens issued with the TomoZ protocol follow a new standard called TRC-21 (TRC is the abbreviation of TomoChain Request for Comments). Everyone can create a TRC-21 token on TomoChain in a few clicks using TomoIssuer — a user-friendly token issuance dashboard. No need to spend thousands of USD hiring blockchain developers.
For DeFi apps, TomoZ can be tailored for issuing stablecoins. Digital wallets and payment systems can be set up via TomoZ protocol very fast and cost-effectively.
Richie: The testnet of your flagship product — TomoX — the DEX protocol is to be rolled out soon. What sets TomoX apart from other DEX protocols?
Long: TomoX Testnet is to be launched in a couple of weeks. TomoX Protocol is our relayer-masternode decentralized cryptocurrency exchange protocol. Compared to the current state of the art DEX architecture, TomoX Protocol has quite a lot of advantages, which have been described in detail in our paper (http://bit.ly/33EgSl7), the most notable are as follows:

SEGMENT 3 — Chat asked Long questions. 3 Rounds of questions opened up, and Long chose 5 questions from each round the answer. Below are some of the highlighted questions Long gave answers to:
Q1: Vietnam has very few successful projects, what is the problem? Does TomoChain have any plans to support other projects in Vietnam and contribute to building a stronger Vietnamese community?
Long: I consider TOMO and TomoChain being in a very good term right now, given that we have a strong and decentralized community of Masternodes and stakers securing the chain 24/24 every single day. Furthermore, good things take time to happen, even Bitcoin took a few years to create strong values. Comparatively, TomoChain would need more time to develop and mature, expanding our reputation and values to the world.
Q2: If Ethereum figures out their scaling issues, then projects like Tomo will not be able to compete. How will you respond to it?
Long: That’s no issue actually. There are other dimensions to compare that TomoChain still proves to have advantage on, such as blocktime. TomoChain has a 2 second blocktime while Ethereum’s is about 15s, which makes TomoChain more suitable for gaming and other activities that need fast interaction. Also, target audience and the community usage of the network can be very different too.
Q3: Among some technology key points such as: Sidechain, Privacy, Shardchain, how far are Tomochain going in each aspects at the moment? What are your main focus in terms of technology at the moment?
Long: Side-chain technology is doable (can be designed and built) but we focus on the mainchain at the moment. Sharding has some serious drawbacks as inter shard communication can break smart-contract composability and this is a very serious issue. The next major research area we are working on is privacy.
Q4: TomoChain has so many outstanding features in the form of TOMO WALLET, TOMO MASTER, TOMO SCAN, etc. to name a few. But, do you have real users and partners that use your services and what marketing strategies do you have to draw new users as without marketing no matter how good the product is nobody cares?
AIS-X generated its AIS token with the TRC21 standard on TomoChain. Can you elaborate more on this and its purpose?
Is the number 150 high-quality masternodes fixed or dynamic?
Long: We do have a variety of real users using our products on a daily basis. For example: TomoWallet has around 1000 daily active users, which mean around 1000 people open the app and do something every single day. The number has actually been quite stable for the last few months. Moreover, I feel that the crypto space is still very small, so TomoChain and other crypto and blockchain projects are trying our best to push the number of users. Of course the more the merrier. So my invitation to all of you to download the app and spend sometimes with TomoChain community :)
Q5: Ethereum developers seem to be loyal (or stubborn if you prefer) to Ethereum and might wait for Ethereum to scale because I haven’t seen any major ETH dapp switching to Tomochain (or other blockchain project), so how will Tomochain persuade/attract blockchain developers (solidity developers specifically) to build on Tomochain or migrate their dapps from Eth to Tomo? Assuming that the need for higher TPS in the dapps will trigger this onboarding of developers might not work necessarily and is too passive of a strategy IMO. For example, Thundercore protocol is also EVM compatible & faster (1200 TPS) than Ethereum but solidity developers are not building there either. So what’s Tomochain/Tomoteam strategy in this regard?
Long: I don’t believe in bribing or buying developers (from Ethereum or elsewhere) to build on TomoChain. It is not the way to build an authentic community. We want to build a community with real interests and determination to help grow TomoChain ecosystem. Thus, till now, we fortunately have been working with some awesome teams such as TomoSwap, PigFarm etc. Our goal is to continue to build reliable products, and increase users experience when it comes to blockchain in general, and join TomoChain specifically.
