Hawk Dex v1 is now live on the Polygon mainnet. The verified contract code can be seen here: 0x0b7F06B38B33dd8F5DB8106744C5be4b095E78E5. The market is set to stay open through the end of 2022. At this point the market will expire and no more trades will be accepted. This is to force users to move to updated code and help with moving on from dust bids which are forgotten.

Here is a diff of our contract and the Oasis Dex on the Ethereum mainnet https://www.diffchecker.com/1FdE3fA7. As we work to update these contracts for a more robust version 2 and in leu of an audit we felt it was best to start with a tried and true contract.

You can trade on http://hawk.exchange. We are working on getting our SSL certs. If you would like that you can trade on https://hawkex.surge.sh/ or you can run your own client locally from this github repo https://github.com/HawkDex/hawk-ui. Currently, Polygon RPC calls are struggling due to increased demand. Due to this the site is having trouble loading charts and trade history. This issue should alleviate itself as the network stabilizes.

Hawk Token

The Hawk governance token has the capability to turn on a maker and taker fee of 5 BIPS each. At this point, the protocol will start accumulating a treasury through trade volume.

Hawk tokens are still being distributed for the next 18 days.

Currently, the dev address is the owner in charge on turning on protocol fees. Outside of turning fees on and off the owner has no other powers. We are actively sourcing trusted outside parties to form a multisig now that the site is live.
