Introduction:

In the past three years, dYdX has facilitated more than $11 billion in trading volume, involving perpetuals, margin, and spot trading, engaging with a diverse group of 64,000 traders. Additionally, dYdX has initiated borrowing and flash transactions exceeding $250 billion from its liquidity pools.

The dYdX Layer 2 protocol, having demonstrated industry-leading products and significant organic growth, is entering a new phase by transitioning control to the community through the introduction of the DYDX governance token.

DYDX empowers the community to govern the protocol, fostering shared control and aligning incentives among traders, liquidity providers, and partners. The token facilitates a comprehensive ecosystem involving governance, rewards, and staking, with the aim of promoting future growth and decentralization of the dYdX Layer 2 protocol. Additionally, the launch includes two staking pools to enhance liquidity and safety, along with rewards programs to incentivize trading, liquidity provision, and past usage, driving adoption of the dYdX Layer 2 protocol.
