FTDX, a pioneer in on-chain trading systems, announced today that it is rebranding to ‘Atomics’ as part of a strategic shift that aligns its brand identity with its new focus on Atomic Swap-based technology and the rapidly evolving DeFi landscape.
FTDX originally gained traction through its platform ftdx.trade, delivering transparent and secure on-chain trading experiences. It established a strong foundation by providing a reliable decentralized trading environment with both speed and security. However, as the market matures and technological demands grow more sophisticated, the team recognized that the original name no longer fully encapsulated the protocol’s future vision.
The new name, ‘Atomics’, directly reflects the project’s core innovation: Atomic Swaps — a trustless method of exchanging assets across different blockchains without the need for intermediaries. Atomics aims to leverage this technology to build a fully decentralized, seamless trading protocol enabling cross-chain direct swaps, trustless execution, and highly visible liquidity infrastructure.
“Over the past two years, FTDX has evolved through experimentation and learning. The name Atomics captures our ambition to deliver purely decentralized, seamless trading experiences. With our technology reaching a new inflection point, this was the perfect time to realign our brand with our mission.”

In the coming weeks, Atomics plans to unveil its updated protocol architecture and launch a public testnet. The platform’s user interface and visual identity will also undergo a complete refresh. Existing FTDX users will be transitioned smoothly into the new Atomics system without any required action.
This rebranding marks Atomics’ full-scale entry into the global cross-chain liquidity market, with ongoing technical partnerships being formed across leading Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchain ecosystems.
