I don't get it. Why is it called a Metadex? What is the big development?

 All I could make from this article other than a bunch of buzz words is that you've tweaked the LP incentivization scheme so that LPs only receive the platform token and veholders get 100% of the fees, instead of only half of the fees like Curve. 

I have no idea if that's actually a better tokenomic twist than Curve, but it doesn't really sound sustainable on first look. I guess we'll see

Do you think the world is ready to embrace this shift? Or will they fight it first until they have no choice once it's too big to fail?
