Asset
The Asset in the DMEX smart contract is a fundamental object that defines the asset being traded in the futures contract. 

The Asset comprises of the following information:
Parameter
Type
Value
baseToken
address
the token used for margin (0x000... in the ETH case)
priceUrl
string
the url where the Oracle will take the settlement price from
pricePath
string
the JSON parameter inside the priceUrl that represent the last traded price
disabled
bool
if true, the asset cannot be used in contract creation (when priceUrl no longer valid or decimals have changed)
decimals
uint256
number of decimals in the price
Every Asset has a unique hash. That unique hash is used in the “Asset” parameter when creating a new Futures Contract. There can be no two assets with different parameters but the same hash because all parameters are part of the hash, therefore a change in parameters would result in a new unique asset hash.
