Developers can use 0x to create their own bespoke exchange apps with a variety of user-facing applications, such as 0x OTC, a decentralized software that allows for trustless over-the-counter trading of Ethereum-based tokens. Makers and Takers utilize the 0x token (ZRX) to pay transaction fees to Relayers (entities that host and maintain public order books).
