Etherex: The MetaDEX Powering Linea’s Decentralized Future

Etherex is a fully on-chain, open-source decentralized exchange (DEX) built on Linea, ConsenSys’ Ethereum Layer-2 zkEVM network. Designed to fulfill Ethereum’s original vision of permissionless trading, Etherex eliminates centralized intermediaries and off-chain order books — replacing them with smart contract-based peer-to-peer swaps.
