Lootex Revolutionizes NFT Marketplace with Smart Accounts and Token Swaps

TAIPEI, April 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Lootex introduces Smart Accounts to simplify Web3 access and a token swap feature to boost NFT liquidity, setting new standards in digital asset trading. Alongside the Smart Frens project, these innovations promise a seamless, secure, and engaging platform for collectors and traders. This strategic move, underpinned by Lootex’s partnership with Mantle Network, aims to democratize blockchain technology and elevate the user experience.
Justine Lu, CEO of Lootex Technology, shares the platform’s inclusive vision, “At Lootex, we’re breaking down barriers to make the NFT and gaming world more accessible. Our focus is on simplicity and enjoyment, ensuring newcomers can easily join and thrive in this space. With innovations like ERC-4337 and ERC-404, we’re enhancing the user experience, aiming to create a welcoming, 404-friendly marketplace. Here, everyone can discover, trade, and connect, making Lootex a one-stop metaverse hub.”
Streamlining Web3 Access with Smart Accounts
Increasing the complexities of Web3 integration, Lootex introduces the Smart Account, leveraging the ERC-4337 standard for account abstraction. This innovation eliminates traditional hurdles, allowing for swift, five-second account creation akin to everyday email or social media sign-ups. Coupled with a gas fee sponsorship mechanism, this function represents a significant leap towards making NFT creation and trading more accessible and secure for everyone, from newcomers to seasoned traders.
A Unified Platform for NFT and Token Exchange
Responding to a surge in liquidity demands within the NFT sector, Lootex unveils its Swap NFT and fungible token function, supporting ERC-404 and other novel protocols. This development offers users a streamlined solution for exchanging and trading NFTs and tokens on a single, efficient platform.
The 404 Journey: A Path to Earn and Engage
The “404 Journey” event encourages users to earn $FRENS tokens through a series of actions from account opening to trading, with the opportunity to receive additional rewards. Unlike simple airdrop activities in general communities, by leveraging ERC-404 and to cater to the gaming-centric platform experience, Lootex has created the Smart Frens series with user avatars for players, who can participate in team trading competitions. The Smart Frens series utilizes the latest AI generation technology to create PFP avatars NFTs that stand out from the mainstream, single-background market, offering artistic, collectible, and identity showcasing values. With six roles and three levels of rarity, they reflect the user’s soulful identity status. The overall activity is divided into 4 phases starting from February 2024, rolling out simultaneously on the official website and community. For more details, please visit lootex.io.
Expanding Partnership with Mantle Network
The “404 Journey” is supported by a prize pool sponsored by the Mantle Network, highlighting the ongoing collaboration that has positioned Lootex as a pioneering NFT marketplace house on the Mantle blockchain since 2023. This partnership not only strengthens the bonds between Lootex and Mantle but also broadens Lootex’s platform capabilities and market reach, underscoring a shared dedication to enhancing blockchain technology and user experience.
“We’re thrilled to work with Lootex, whose innovative embrace of new technologies aligns with our vision at Mantle Network,” states the Sean Lee, the NFT Growth Lead of Mantle Network. “This strategic collaboration is set to revolutionize NFT trading, enhancing liquidity and user experience by combining our blockchain technology with Lootex’s forward-thinking platform. Together, we’re leading users seamlessly into Web3, setting new standards for the NFT ecosystem’s accessibility and engagement.

Bybit Unifies Loan Products to Enhance Capital Efficiency for Crypto Traders

DUBAI, UAE, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is enhancing the user experience and capital efficiency of its lending products by integrating Crypto Loans (flexible loans) and Fixed Rate Loans into a single, streamlined interface.
The integration introduces a unified platform for both loan types, enabling users to compare, manage, and optimize their borrowing strategies with greater ease. All loan products are now accessible under the Crypto Loans page, with a redesigned layout that prioritizes usability and transparency.
“Our goal is to simplify how users interact with our lending products while enhancing their capital flexibility,” said Emily Bao, Head of Spot at Bybit. “By consolidating management tools and aligning risk models, we’re giving our users more control and clarity over their borrowing activity.”
Key upgrades include:
- Unified Cross Margin Model: Both flexible and fixed-term loans will now operate under a shared cross-margin system, allowing users to benefit from consolidated Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratios — set at 80% (initial), 85% (margin call), and 92% (liquidation).
- Shared Collateral: Collateral can now be used interchangeably across both loan types, enabling more agile capital deployment.
- Tiered Collateral Ratios: All supported assets will follow a tiered collateral system, reflecting each asset’s risk profile — consistent with the structure previously applied to Fixed Rate Loans.
- Updated Interest Calculation: Interest will be calculated hourly using a compounding method: total debt (principal + accrued interest) multiplied by the hourly interest rate.
Existing loan orders will remain unaffected, continuing under their original terms and conditions. For users seeking further information, detailed guides on both Fixed Rate Loans and Crypto Loans are available via the Bybit Help Center.
This strategic move reaffirms Bybit’s commitment to innovation and user empowerment in the evolving digital asset economy.
