Citex

There are three markets available on the platform: BTC, ETH, USDT. A credit card cannot be used for making a deposit but CITEX offers wire transfer as a deposit method. In this instance, it is possible to deposit only Korean Won as the platform has access to the Korean legal currency channel, which provides a massive user increment space. Korean Won is also mentioned among the currencies that can be withdrawn.

CITEX fees

The deposits are free on the platform. Trading fees for both makers and takers are 0.2%. There are some trading fee discounts offered to the participants. Withdrawal fees and the minimum withdrawal amount depend on the token you want to claim.

Staking

Trading is not the only way to benefit from the platform. CITEX provides the owners of some altcoins with an opportunity to get more profit via staking.

Mining-Pool Project is one of the variants that allows users to receive additional income. It is impossible to withdraw the coins participating in the Mining-Pool Project when they begin to generate income but they can be traded and deposited as usual. The withdrawal will be available in two days after quitting the Mining-Pool Project. After participating in the project, it is possible to get additional accelerated rewards by holding CTT, the native platform’s token.

Another variant of staking is the Masternode Hosting program. CITEX users can open the nodes on the platform and stake a specified quantity of coins to get node rewards. The annualized return of the Masternode investment usually is 15% - 50%. The Masternode Hosting provides the participants with higher income but they need to pay the server rent (5 USDT per each server every month).

Trans-fee mining

CITEX offers an innovative Trans-fee mining model when users can "mine" tokens paying a transaction fee. The users are rewarded with a 105% equivalent of fees in the form of CTT tokens.

The traditional trans-fee mining mechanism is not perfect, though. CITEX claims to overcome inherent problems with the help of its innovative features: one-click mining, hourly 5% income, one-hour high-frequency mining returns, high-pledge dividends, the introduction of scientific mining hard cap.

Trans-Fee Mining mechanism supports not all the traded pairs. At the time of writing, the supported pairs are ETH/BTC, BTC/USDT, and ETH/USDT.

CITEX Token

CITEX Token (CTT) is the native coin of the platform. This is a user value-added service equity system based on ERC-20. The CTT/ETH trading market was launched on November 14, 2018, on CITEX.

The total supply is 1 billion (9 billion have been already destroyed at the time of writing). CTT is distributed in the following way: early investors got approximately 20,330,000; team received approximately 103,620,000; community got approximately 314,770,000.

CTT is used for different purposes supporting the platform performance and providing its owners with some benefits such as discounted fees, 105% trans-fee mining output, daily dividends, and community decision making. Some of the benefits are not yet avaialble.

According to the official statements, CTT has complete investment, equity, currency, and governance attributes. The platform regularly organizes various events and airdrops for CTT holders.
