dYdX announces progress on dYdX Chain: internal testnet launched, covering core features such as leverage, fees, and liquidation
ChainCatcher news, the decentralized derivatives protocol dYdX announced the completion of the second milestone of dYdX V4 (dYdX Chain), which is the internal testnet. Currently, dYdX V4 has two permanently running internal blockchain networks, one for developer testing and the other as a general testing network. Functionally, it allows core trading features, including leverage, fees, oracle price updates, hourly funding rates, and liquidation.
Previously, ChainCatcher reported in June this year that dYdX plans to launch its own Layer 1 blockchain using the Cosmos SDK in the coming months to provide a competitively long-term product experience. This blockchain will be controlled by a group of distributed validators rather than solely by the founding team, which helps to make the project more decentralized. (Source link)
