AURAX Layer Gateway
The Agentic Stellar DEX
Trade directly on the Stellar Network’s on-chain order book — non-custodial, transparent, and settled in seconds. AURAX Layer Gateway wraps the Stellar DEX in an AI-assisted execution layer so you can position orders intelligently while keeping full control of your keys.
What is a Stellar DEX?
A Stellar DEX is a decentralized exchange built into the Stellar Network itself. Unlike a centralized venue that holds your deposits, the Stellar DEX matches orders on a public, on-chain order book. Every trade settles peer-to-peer on the ledger — usually within a few seconds and for a fraction of a cent — and anyone can verify it. Because there is no custodian, you trade straight from your own wallet and never hand over your funds.
AURAX Layer Gateway is an access layer on top of that order book. It gives you a clean interface for XLM and AURAX markets, live depth, market and limit orders, and one-step trustline activation — without ever taking custody of your assets.
Why trade on the Stellar DEX with AURAX
Non-custodial by design
Connect Freighter or a mobile wallet via WalletConnect. You sign every order; your keys and funds stay in your wallet the entire time.
AI-assisted execution
The Liquidity Guardian helps you read conditions and position orders intelligently — assistance on top of the DEX, with you approving each action.
On-chain order book
Trade XLM and AURAX against Stellar’s native order book with live depth, market and limit orders, and verifiable on-ledger settlement.
Fast & low cost
Stellar settles trades in seconds for a fraction of a cent — the DEX experience without centralized-exchange custody or withdrawal friction.
DEX vs. centralized exchange
On a centralized exchange (CEX) you deposit assets into the platform’s custody and trust it to settle and safeguard them. On the Stellar DEX you trade from your own wallet against the on-chain order book — you keep custody throughout, and settlement is transparent on the public ledger. The trade-off is responsibility: with self-custody you hold your own keys, so AURAX Layer Gateway focuses on making that path as safe and guided as possible, from trustline setup to order execution.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Stellar DEX?
A Stellar DEX (decentralized exchange) is a marketplace where assets are traded directly on the Stellar Network’s built-in, on-chain order book — no central custodian holds your funds. Orders settle peer-to-peer on the ledger, typically in a few seconds and for a fraction of a cent in fees.
Is AURAX Layer Gateway custodial?
No. AURAX Layer Gateway is fully non-custodial. You connect your own Stellar wallet (Freighter on desktop, or a mobile wallet via WalletConnect) and sign every transaction yourself. Your private keys and funds never leave your wallet — the Gateway only helps you build and route orders.
Which markets can I trade?
The Gateway provides access to XLM and AURAX markets — including AURAX/XLM and XLM/USDC — traded against the Stellar Network’s native order book. You can place market and limit orders and view live order-book depth.
What wallet do I need?
A non-custodial Stellar wallet. On desktop, connect Freighter. On mobile, connect a compatible wallet through WalletConnect. To hold or trade AURAX you also activate an AURAX trustline — the Gateway walks you through this in one step.
How is a DEX different from a centralized exchange?
On a centralized exchange you deposit funds into the exchange’s custody and trust it to hold and settle them. On a Stellar DEX you trade straight from your own wallet against the on-chain order book — you keep custody the entire time, and settlement is transparent and verifiable on the public ledger.
What makes it an “agentic” Stellar DEX?
AURAX Layer Gateway adds an AI-assisted execution layer — including the Liquidity Guardian — that helps you read market conditions and position orders intelligently, while you stay in full control and approve every action. It is assistance, not automation of your custody.
