For the first time in history, the World Cup was traded live as a market.
The Ultimate @FanTokens™ showdown proved that trading = REAL entertainment.
Every goal, penalty shot, or red card becomes an event that moves charts.
It was a huge success in showing people what’s possible on Vibe:
→ 6 live trading events
→ 2,831 engagements
→ 337,660 X impressions
→ 95 pieces of content across 11 accounts
→ 30,702 impressions on the Spain vs Argentina final
→ 16,728 livestream views (5,090 peak during Portugal vs Spain opener)
Produced end-to-end by @battle_fyi, all trading executed live on Vibe with various Fan Tokens from the @Chiliz ecosystem.
And in the end, viewers even joined to trade with the streamers!
We had a bunch of amazing creators come trade, to mention a few: @AndySlaps, @iceyyy_gaming, @marcellovtv, @SamSteffanina

Most perp DEXs today remind me of the L2 wars from back when ETH gas was expensive. Speed, throughput, gas cost - that was all they competed on.
Back in 2024 I counted 30+ L2s that were absolutely indistinguishable from each other and I couldn't understand why people kept building them.
Fast forward to today and only a handful survived by active users - @base, @arbitrum, @inkonchain, @Polygon, @AbstractChain.
The exact same thing will happen with perp DEXs. Only around 5-8 will survive. Right now we see a pile of perp DEXs that are no different from each other. Same recycled takes everywhere: "we have faster transaction speed," "our points system is better," "we have lower fees."
But if you strip away all these identical talking points, you won't see any real difference between them.
So I want to highlight a few perp DEXs - not by point price, trading fees, fundraise size, metrics, or anything like that. I want to highlight them by the ideas and technologies that genuinely differentiate them from other perp DEXs.
It's these differentiators that can make them stand out, which could impact their token FDV and therefore the size of their airdrop (assuming one happens).
@variational_io
Abandoned the classic orderbook (CLOB) or liquidity pools (AMM) in favor of a p2p Request-for-Quote (RFQ) model. Variational aggregates liquidity directly from CEXs, other DEXs, and traditional market makers. This allows the platform to offer zero trading fees for traders (earning on spreads) and trade not just crypto but real-world assets (RWAs: stocks, forex, commodities) with deep liquidity. No ADL (auto-deleverage) like on classic CEXs. Dividends for long stock positions. The largest number of RWA markets among all perp DEXs.
@nadoHQ
Unified Margin (you can use BTC, ETH, SPYx, AAPLx, METAx, etc. as collateral for perps). Usually on perp DEXs margin is calculated either in isolation per position, or at best cross-margin across perps only. On Nado you have one account and one collateral pool for everything. The risk engine nets risks across the entire portfolio in real time, which reduces the likelihood of liquidation - even if you're a degen to the bone.
@risextrade
Synchronous composability: your trades, margin, and positions live in the same block as other DeFi protocols (lending, AMMs, etc.). That means you can simultaneously stake liquidity, farm points in a lending protocol, and use that liquidity as margin inside the perp DEX - all happening on RISE Chain.
@bulktrade
An advanced portfolio margin system, not the simple isolated/cross margin most perp DEXs use. It accounts for correlations between different assets. If you're long one asset and short another (cross-asset hedge), the system looks at the actual correlation and reduces margin requirements. This gives significantly better capital efficiency than simple cross-margin.
Recalculation happens 50 times per second. This matters for delta-neutral positions: if the market moves sharply, both sides of the hedge are revalued simultaneously, not with a delay. Most perp DEXs calculate risk quite primitively. Bulktrade tries to do it closer to how large exchanges and clearinghouses (like CME) calculate risk.
@ProprXYZ
This isn't just a perp DEX, but a crypto-native proprietary trading platform built on @HyperliquidX. Bringing the entire lifecycle of prop trading on-chain. Traders get access to funded accounts with transparent rules, where profit splits, risk management, and payouts happen automatically via on-chain smart contracts.
@get_truenorth
This isn't a perp DEX in the classical sense, but an AI agentic brokerage built on top of perp DEXs. Instead of manually operating a terminal interface, you manage AI agents. You set the parameters and specialized financial AI models automate discovery, risk management, and execution of complex trading strategies for you. Essentially, it's the ability to assemble your own personal "professional trading desk."
@vibe_trading
This is "Pumpfun for perps" - permissionless listing: anyone can launch a futures market for any shitcoin simply by depositing the native token into a vault (no USDC or exchange approval needed), even with a market cap as low as $500K. This way you can short a potential rug at $10M market cap and profit from it after the rug pull.
@slx_fi
A new matching engine architecture that structurally eliminates the latency arbitrage tax. The platform is designed to protect ordinary traders from toxic order flow from HFT bots profiting on microsecond price differences. Protection from toxic flow via Dual Flow Batch Auctions.
When people ask me about many other perp DEXs - why I don't farm points there - my answer is simple: what is unique about that perp DEX and how does it differ from the rest?
In my list above you can at least see what differentiates each one from other perp DEXs and why they deserve attention.
There is only one way to bring back the trenches Ansem.
We need onchain tokens to become real markets like perpetuals, not a race to try and hope someone buys after you so you can dump on them.
Check out @vibe_trading, they're building permissionless perps (anyone can bootstrap their own market instantly using only token supply)
It's like if pumpfun and hyperliquid had a baby

@Sarah_GreenOk What if I told you @vibe_trading was going to become the universal credit layer for all crypto tokens? Able to absorb all the RWA tokens coming on-chain. Granting real yield to holders while giving exposure to all traders?
