What does it mean to 'provide liquidity'?
Typically, CFD brokerages (like DXS) outsource their market-making function to liquidity cartels, established exchanges or financial institutions.
DXS is unique in that it outsources the liquidity function to an unbiased autonomous not-for-profit entity: The Open Liquidity Protocol (OLP). The OLP is covered in deeper technical detail in the below link:
The OLP is funded by the public. Becoming an OLP liquidity provider is a first-ever opportunity for retail investors to generate yield from trading losses. No longer is this opportunity exclusively accessible to backbone market participants:

Enter your stablecoin withdrawal address
Fiorin has a built-in bridge smart contract, allowing deposits of USDT, USDC and DAI ERC20 stablecoins from Ethereum. As part of Fiorin’s security procedures, ERC20 stablecoin deposits cannot be made until you specify an Ethereum withdrawal address. Once specified, the withdrawal address cannot be changed.
Notice the banner communicating that 200% of any gas fees paid on deposits and/or withdrawals are credited to the your Bounty Trading account on DXS!
Once a withdrawal address has been specified, clicking on RECEIVE will show your USD-ERC20 deposit address. Click copy or SHARE to copy the deposit address to your clipboard.
Send stablecoins to your deposit address
The below example demonstrates a $54.50 USDT transfer from Binance to Fiorin. You simply need to paste in your deposit address, select the Ethereum (ERC20) network and specify the amount to transfer.
Your first deposit!
Ethereum deposits will show in your Fiorin wallet after 5 minutes. Your first deposit will be expensive because Fiorin’s bridge smart contract consumes significant gas when processing a first-time user. Subsequent deposits require 4.3x less gas.
The below example shows the initial $54.50 USDT transfer from Binance less $4.50 in Binance gas fees, less $11.38 in Fiorin smart contract gas fees. A total of $15.88 of gas fees paid in total.
Do not despair! Gas fees are not wasted. 200% of any gas fees paid (on deposits AND withdrawals) are credited to your Bounty Trading account on DXS! In this case, the Bounty Trading credit is $15.88 * 2 = $31.76
Clicking on the deposit line in the above gif opens the receipt of the transaction in a third-party block explorer service. The deposit amount of $38.62 USDT can be verified on the blockchain.
