​​NEM to integrate DeXe Network’s Asset Management into its ecosystem!

DeXe Asset Management tool will give the community of NEM’s ecosystem the same access to successful traders as users have on other blockchains. The integration opens to NEM users DeXe Wallet-to-Wallet copying interface, so they can follow and copy interesting wallets from the NEM network. Without the owner of the copied wallet knowing about the copying, users can automatically trade an asset when the copied wallet does. This makes identifying potentially good trades a lot easier and executing them automatic.
