Bitfinex, a premier digital asset trading platform, has announced that it will be among the first exchanges to list UXLINK, the governance token of UXLINK, a decentralized social network platform and infrastructure provider, according to blog.bitfinex.com.

UXLINK: An Alternative to Centralized Social Networks

Launched in 2023, UXLINK aims to provide an alternative to traditional social networking websites that centralize user data. UXLINK integrates various user-friendly decentralized applications into Telegram, one of the most popular messaging applications. The platform employs a dual-token economics model, featuring on-chain point rewards and a separate governance token.

Utility and Supply of UXLINK

The UXLINK governance token offers several utility options for its holders, including facilitating payments for the use of the platform’s decentralized applications, data, and gas fees. The token has a capped supply of no more than 1 billion UXLINK.

Bitfinex's Role in Web3 Adoption

“In order to become mainstream, Web3 needs to meet new users where they are. Social networking is an excellent way to bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 and onboard new users,” said Henry Child, Head of Tokens at Bitfinex. “We at Bitfinex are thrilled to add the governance token UXLINK to our vast selection of digital assets.”
