Theme Decentralized Exchange (DEX)

In October, decentralized platforms reached a historic milestone. More than $1.3 trillion in perpetual contracts were traded in one month. A symbolic threshold, never reached before, illustrating a profound shift in the crypto ecosystem. Long dominated by centralized platforms, the derivatives market is witnessing a new dynamic, driven by DeFi. This rapid growth is not by chance but the result of a structural change in usage, tools, and trader confidence.

The crypto world is a battlefield where innovation allows no respite. After the meteoric rise of Hyperliquid and the breakthrough of Aster, Solana responds with a project designed for speed and scalability: Percolator.

Behind the evocative name lies a vision: that of a crypto exchange engine without compromise, where on-chain performance finally meets the simplicity of a centralized exchange.

As airdrop valued at 600 million dollars approaches, the decentralized platform Aster faces a crucial strategic choice. To avoid a collapse in the price of its ASTER token, the team is considering imposing a vesting on the beneficiaries.

Between loyalty, speculation and stability, Aster plays a decisive card for its short and medium-term future.

Hyperliquid’s rapid growth in decentralized derivatives is turning heads as its trading activity edges closer to rival Binance.

Hyperliquid has just smashed a world record that redefines the meaning of efficiency. The young decentralized exchange is now generating $1.127 billion in annual revenue, with only 11 contributors. That comes out to a staggering $102.4 million per employee. No company, crypto or traditional, has ever reached this level of productivity.

Solana continues to dominate the decentralized exchange (DEX) ecosystem, outpacing other veteran networks such as Ethereum.

With the rapid advancements in quantum computing, the threat to traditional crypto systems is now an undeniable reality. The so-called "Q-Day"—the day when quantum computers become powerful enough to break current cryptographic systems—is no longer a distant possibility. For the crypto world, this moment represents an existential threat. How can we prepare for this looming danger? The answer: Naoris Protocol, a cutting-edge solution designed to secure blockchain and Web3 technologies against the post-quantum future.

On April 7, 2025, the crypto exchange platform Bitget announced the launch of Bitget Onchain, a new feature integrated into its application.

Driven by metrics in sharp progression, yet underestimated by the market, the blockchain offers a very real potential that few seem willing to face.
