About IDEX V1
The fastest, most secure decentralized exchange.
Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.
IDEX V1 codebase lineage and protocol family
IDEX V1 is published as a versioned release inside the Kuma protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.
Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.
