🔁 ARE PERP DEXs ERODING CEX MARKET SHARE? In 2022, Perp DEXs accounted for just 1% of the crypto derivatives market. By 2025, that figure has surged to 26%. 👉 This is no longer a trend — it is a structural shift. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏆 Hyperliquid Leads the Market Annual trading volume has surpassed $2.6 trillion, with more than 978,000 real users. However, two structural issues remain: 💰 Retail traders pay 0.05% fees, while large traders pay only 0.0175%. 👀 All positions are fully public on-chain — making whales visible and vulnerable to liquidation hunting. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚔️ Competitors See an Opening 🔹 Lighter and Paradex — zero-fee models gaining market share rapidly. 🔹 Aster — backed by BNB Chain, reportedly generating higher daily fee revenue than Hyperliquid during Q4 2025. 🔹 GRVT — a “hybrid exchange” built on ZKsync, combining CEX-level speed with DEX-level asset control. Taker fee: 0.045%. Maker fee: negative (rebate model) — liquidity providers earn instead of paying fees. TGE expected in Q1 2026. 🔹 Paradex — incubated by Paradigm. During Season 2, daily trading volume increased from $68 million to $2.1 billion. Token $DIME is expected to launch (TGE) in March. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📍 The Perp DEX sector is entering its most competitive phase yet: a dominant leader charging premium fees — and a wave of challengers proving alternative models are possible.
