Product & Architecture

CEX On-ramp

Tensfer has an Infra that allows other dApps to integrate with her extension, allowing users to access their CEX liquidity directly from within those applications(currently supports EVM chains). We will extend this integration capabilities on the Stellar blockchain.

(A demo of this is shown in the video )

Problems It Solves:

  • Lack of embedded interface while moving assets between CEX and DEFI, across blockchains in dApps.
  • Address prone mistakes while copying and pasting addresses during transfer execution between CEXs and dApps, vice versa.

Benefits:

  • Tensfer's CEX on-ramps can simplify the process for users to transfer funds from familiar centralized exchanges (CEX) directly into their Stellar wallets. This can attract new users to the Stellar network by eliminating the potentially complex steps involved in acquiring crypto through decentralized exchanges (DEX) or peer-to-peer transactions.
  • Tensfer's CEX on-ramps non-custodial approach allows users to retain control of their private keys while enabling CEX on-ramps. This can be attractive to users who are wary of fully centralized solutions but still value the ease of use offered by CEX platforms. The CEX on-ramps acts as a bridge, reducing friction for users who want to participate in the Stellar ecosystem without fully transitioning to a self-custody model.

How It Works:

  • Connects with CEX and DEX directly using the available public APIs.
  • Implement support for WalletConnect to extend compatibility to self-custody wallets.
  • Implements Stellar's CAP-0021 for token transfer authorization
  • Implement a trustless authentication method

Audience:

  • dApp developers: Tensfer provides an infrastructure that allows dApps to integrate Tensfer's CEX On-ramp feature, giving users direct access to their CeFi liquidity from within the dApps.

    Currently dApps built on EVM chains with planned extension to Stellar blockchain.

Crypto enthusiasts and DeFi users: Tensfer solves problems specifically faced by users who deal with both DeFi and CeFi platforms, by simplifying the transfer of assets between them.

 

Wallet Analyzer

Tensfer's Wallet Analyzer provides comprehensive insights into crypto wallets addresses in the Stellar network.

Problems It Solves:

  • Lack of transparency in wallet activities.
  • Difficulty in tracking multi-chain wallet addresses and it’s assets movements.
  • Limited access to detailed wallet analytics for retail users.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced Decision-Making: Users can make better financial decisions based on a comprehensive wallet analysis of a particular address on the Stellar blockchain.
  • Identifying Successful Wallets: By analyzing transaction history, total volume, and asset distribution on the Stellar network, Tensfer Wallet Analyzer can might reveal "whales" (large holders) within the ecosystem, hence helping users(copy traders) identify wallets with potentially successful trading strategies.

How It Works:

  • Utilizes Stellar's Horizon API to fetch wallet data and transaction history.
  • Implements Stellar's SEP-0001 for standardized metadata retrieval.
  • Leverages Stellar's CAP-0015 for fee-bump transactions analysis.
  • Integrate with Stellar Expert for detailed wallet analytics and historical data.

Audience:

Users, copy traders or retails investors looking to gain extensive insight into any wallet address activities on-chain.

Tensfer Swap​​​​​​​

Tensfer swap aggregates low-value assets across a user's linked wallet, and allows users to swap those assets into USDC on Stellar in a single transaction.

Problems It Solves:

  • Asset Fragmentation: Helps users consolidate low-value assets across multiple wallets into stablecoins like USDC.
  • Transaction Efficiency: Enables users to execute complex multi-asset swaps in a single transaction, reducing gas fees and improving user experience.
  • Multi-Source Funding: Transfer swaps allows the aggregation of various funding sources in one transaction. By topping up a USDC balance for a purchase from converting low value assets in value like BTC to ETH etc.

Benefits:

  • Increased Liquidity: Encourages users to hold and transact with stablecoins by providing a seamless way to consolidate and convert fragmented holdings in their Stellar wallet or various exchanges.

How It Works:

  • Connects with CEX and DEX directly using the available public APIs.
  • Utilizes either Stellar AMM’s, Stellar's CAP-20 or path payment integration for cross-asset swap transactions.
  • Leverages Horizon API to retrieve market data and pricing information to calculate assets price before swap execution.

Audience:

Individuals who have low-value assets in their wallets, and want to swap it to stablecoins.
