MTLX Mettalex

Mettalex is a spin-off project from Fetch.ai. It is founded by Fetch.ai’s Founder – Humayun Sheikh – who has deep knowledge of the commodities trading sector and more specifically – the metals markets. Aware of the market inefficiencies in the ferrous commodities sector, Humayun came up with a cost and capital-efficient solution based on blockchain technology, token economics, industry-grade pricing data, and the liquidity available in the DeFi space.

Mettalex is a blockchain-based commodity derivatives exchange (DEX) that aims to bring the $20T commodities markets on-chain, democratize access to commodity markets, and offer a hedging tool to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the commodities supply chain.
