This article summarizes development work and ecosystem activities related to Dex223 during December and January 2026.

Dex223 is building a decentralized exchange designed to accelerate adoption of the ERC-223 token standard—a safer alternative to ERC-20 that was created to eliminate a long-standing security flaw responsible for over $100 million in losses on Ethereum.
This update highlights our latest progress, what remains before launch, and how our focus is evolving as we prepare to bring Dex223 to market.
As we move closer to launch, two remaining components are critical:
In parallel, we are planning a private funding round ahead of launch to bootstrap early-stage liquidity and ensure healthy market conditions from day one.
The Dex223 revenue contract is now complete.
During development, we identified a flaw in our initial time-weighted reward distribution model and deprecated that approach. The updated model distributes rewards based on current pool balances, enabling flexible and dynamic reward claims across all pools.
While this design trades some precision for flexibility, it allows us to:
We are transparent about the limitations:
This model is intentional for launch and gives us the agility we need. A more precise mechanism may replace it in future iterations as the protocol matures.
📄 The revenue contract source code is publicly available for review.
Over the past two months, our efforts have focused on raising awareness of the problems Dex223 solves, particularly around token security.
Following Devconnect, we explored partnerships with security researchers, auditors, and developer-focused organizations. While these conversations were valuable, it became clear that this approach alone does not generate meaningful adoption.
Going forward, we are shifting our focus toward:
Token standards are highly technical, but security is universal. Everyone understands the importance of protecting their funds. This insight is reshaping how we communicate ERC-223’s value.
Media coverage has historically been a challenge for ERC-223 adoption. Instead of positioning ERC-223 as a technical improvement, we are reframing the conversation around real-world security risks and user protection.
