Netswap crypto prices are determined automatically based on market prices. The trading interface also offers instant crypto token swaps. Users only need to connect their wallets to begin trading.
The platform also offers leveraged swaps. Thus, traders can margin trade with up to 5X leverage.

However, leveraged trading has a higher risk and may involve losing more funds than you have.
