One Market, Better Prices: A Simpler Way to Trade Perpetuals
Trading perpetual contracts used to mean navigating separate order books for USD, USDC, and USDG margined contracts. That fragmentation made liquidity shallow and pricing inconsistent. Wider spreads, higher slippage, and poor execution were common, especially for larger trades.
In short, you had to work harder just to get a fair price.
Our Solution: The Power of a Unified Market, brought to Perpetuals
We’ve unified the order books for USD, USDC, and USDG margined perpetuals into a single deep pool of liquidity. With this shared Order book:
All USD-margined contracts now share the same order book.
Liquidity is deeper: Tighter spreads and reduced slippage, even on big trades.
You can use USD, USDC, or USDG as collateral and access the same market.
How This Improves the Trading Experience
This is more than a backend upgrade. It's a direct improvement to the trading experience.Whether you’re managing high-volume trades or just looking for better execution, this upgrade helps you:
Trade with confidence: Know you're getting the best price available.
Save on costs: Tighter spreads mean less money lost, with more accurate pricing on entry and exit market / limit orders
Move faster: A single book means less switching, better decisions, and more time in the market.
