The post dYdX Launches Game-Changing Unlimited Upgrade appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
As per reports, popular decentralized exchange dYdX’s ambitious upgrade — dubbed ‘dYdX Unlimited’ — has gone live. They are introducing a host of unprecedented features, including the launch of a highly anticipated feature called ‘permissionless market listing.’
The feature enables users to instantly list virtually any market they want on the dYdX Chain — without requiring prior governance approval. Moreover, users are able to launch new perpetual contract markets (spanning cryptocurrencies and prediction markets) by simply depositing USDC into the protocol’s innovative MegaVault system.
This setup is in stark contrast to how traditional exchanges facilitate market creation, where listing new assets typically involves lengthy approval processes as well as other complex formalities.
The introduction of ‘MegaVault’ is tailored to help solve one of the most persistent challenges in decentralized trading today, i.e., poor liquidity.
Operating as dYdX’s master liquidity pool and market maker, MegaVault ensures that even newly listed markets have sufficient liquidity from day one. Users can make use of the feature by depositing their USDC into it, allowing them to earn both from the vault’s trading performance and a share of the protocol’s revenue.
This double-pronged passive income opportunity, coupled with the use of automated money making market-making strategies, stands to help establish a sustainable ecosystem that can benefit traders and liquidity providers alike.
Redefined security and affiliate opportunities
In addition to all the upgrades outlined above, dYdX Unlimited has also introduced several user-centric features aimed at institutional traders and community growth. For example, the implementation of permissioned keys allows users to have granular control over their wallet access — so that only authorized participants can perform certain actions (including depositing or withdrawing funds).
Additionally, dYdX Unlimited comes with a comprehensive affiliate program wherein users who trade at least $10,000 can unlock exclusive affiliate links, allowing them to earn a share of their referrals’ trading fees while offering discounted rates across dYdX’s entire product suite.
High-performing affiliates will have the opportunity to become part of a VIP program (hosted by the dYdX Foundation) for additional bonuses and perks.
Lastly, the platform is rolling out a brand-new interface alongside a more streamlined onboarding process. Voters can allocate portions of their earned trading fees to various third-party addresses based on their contributions to the chain, further enhancing the ecosystem’s collaborative nature.
Analyzing dYdX’s growth trajectory
The timing of dYdX Unlimited couldn’t be more strategic. According to recent research released by Pantera Capital, dYdX is projected to triple its market capitalization to over $10 billion within the next year.
This ambitious valuation would position the dYdX token among the top 20 most valuable cryptocurrencies globally, alongside giants like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The platform’s robust financial performance supports these projections, with January seeing $5.12 million in earned fees and a monthly profit of $1.83 million after token incentives.
Part of the platform’s success can be attributed to its innovative approach to trading fees and user incentives. To elaborate, dYdX employs a tiered maker-taker fee structure that rewards active traders, with fees ranging from 0.05% for casual traders to as low as 0.025% for high-volume participants.
Such a competitive fee structure, combined with the platform’s early mover advantage and successful migration to Ethereum L2 for improved transaction speed and cost efficiency, has helped dYdX capture a significant share of the crypto perpetuals trading market (volume-wise).
In closing, the imminent release of dYdX Unlimited is being hailed by many as being more than just a network upgrade but rather a means of democratizing financial access to the DeFi landscape. Therefore, as the crypto market evolves, it will be interesting to see how dYdX’s innovative offerings and strong fundamentals position it within the crypto exchange realm.
