Institutions can now hold governance token, dYdX (DYDX) today at launch in Anchorage custody. dYdX is a decentralized margin trading platform where traders can truly own their trades. With the launch of its governance token, they, along with Anchorage clients, can now participate in important decisions in the project’s direction.

Anchorage Digital has always been committed to bringing our clients access early on to new assets that meet our standards for security and quality. We’re proud to continue offering our clients exposure to new assets thanks to the dedicated work of our engineering team.

About dYdX (DYDX)

The DYDX token is an ERC-20 forked from Aave’s governance token with a liquidity-based governance approach allowing its community to engage in on-chain voting on protocol and market proposals, as well as liquidity miners. In its 2017 whitepaper, dYdX lays out its standards for trading, along with initial governance structure.

Anchorage already supports custody for many governance tokens including AAVE, COMP, MKR, SUSHI, and TRIBE as well as simple and secure on-chain governance voting with offline assets.

If you’re holding or plan to hold DYDX, or if you’d like to learn more about Anchorage, please get in touch.
