The dYdX Foundation, a part of the dYdX ecosystem, has reached a significant milestone in its transition from Ethereum to its own blockchain network based on Cosmos. The foundation has announced the deployment of a new Bridge User Interface that will facilitate the transfer of ethDYDX tokens to the native dYdX blockchain. This move is expected to increase liquidity and encourage users to stake their native DYDX tokens, thereby enhancing the network’s stability and security. Unlike platforms like Uniswap and SushiSwap, dYdX focuses specifically on perpetuals trading, which involves trading contracts without expiration dates. It differentiates itself from other decentralized exchanges by using a traditional orderbook and matching model. Despite being a niche platform, dYdX has gained popularity and currently has over $367 million in total value locked. The decision to migrate to its own blockchain was driven by the need for a high-throughput solution that can support a professional trading environment. The Cosmos ecosystem offers customizable fee structures, transaction fees, and a decentralized, off-chain orderbook that can scale with the exchange’s growth. The recent developments, including the release of the dYdX Chain open-source software and the completion of the mainnet genesis, pave the way for the migration to the dYdX chain. The deployment of the Bridge User Interface allows users to bridge their DYDX tokens from Ethereum to the dYdX blockchain. The next stage for the dYdX Chain involves boosting stability and security through token staking by validators. The transition to the beta stage will require specific performance metrics and a governance vote by the dYdX community. During this stage, the dYdX Chain will become publicly accessible with limited trading functionality to test the network before its mainnet launch.
