The Architect of Solana Attacks!
Anatoly Yakovenko unveils 'Percolator', the #DEX of perpetual futures designed to annihilate the competition with Revolutionary Technology
In a move that has shaken the community of developers and traders, the co-founder and CEO of #solana Labs, Anatoly Yakovenko, is not just steering the ship; he is in the engine room building a new engine. His project, #Percolator , revealed through documentation on GitHub, is not just another DEX. It is a fundamental reimagining of how perpetual futures trading should work on a high-performance blockchain, personally designed by the brain behind Solana.
The news is explosive for two reasons: who is building it and how it is being built. That Yakovenko is dedicating his time to designing a DeFi protocol of this magnitude is an unequivocal sign of its strategic importance for the future of the ecosystem. But the real revolution lies in its architecture.
Forget about monolithic and slow order books. The great innovation of Percolator is the "slabs". Instead of a single and gigantic order book for the entire DEX, Percolator fragments it into multiple smaller, autonomous, and independent matching engines that operate in parallel.
In essence, Percolator is not just a new application; it is a potential new standard. It is Yakovenko's vision made code, designed to demonstrate why Solana was built in the first place: to host financial applications that were once thought impossible to run on a blockchain. The DeFi ecosystem of Solana and its competitors have just been put on notice.
