$250B Traded On DeFi's Full Stack 📊
#dot has been building the cross-chain communication infrastructure that allows DeFi protocols to function across separate blockchains without centralized bridges. #XLM has settled over $1.2 billion in tokenized real-world assets, establishing itself as one of the primary settlement layers for onchain institutional finance.
Both are solving infrastructure problems at different layers of the DeFi stack. The trading layer above them is still fragmented across venues.
Paradex is building that layer as a single unified platform.
Spot, perpetuals, dated options, perpetual options, and RWA perps across commodities, FX, and equities from one account. Portfolio margin means capital works across the full product suite without being siloed by asset class.
One collateral pool and one liquidation system across the complete derivatives stack, accessible from a single login.
Zero retail fees. Execution is zk-encrypted by default, keeping position sizes, entries, and liquidation levels private from other market participants.
$250 billion in cumulative trading volume with 75,000+ traders across 250+ markets since February 2024.
Built by the team behind Paradigm, an institutional options network with over $1 trillion in cumulative volume.
