whats this

[Benn Eifert 🥷🏴‍☠️ @bennpeifert]

mod and i had this conversation, he said it first and i completely agree with him. 99% of retail options traders would be better off trading perps than options, they are so much simpler with many fewer misunderstood features

[Gunjan Banerji @GunjanJS]

Perpetual futures have come to the U.S.

They’re way easier to trade, understand than options + traditional futures

Cboe is launching crypto perps soon. Will we see perps tied to stocks soon? There’s no shortage of demand for super leveraged stock, etf trades

Wait until perpetual futures are listed on all the major names... no volatility drag from rebalancing, no mgmt fee, much more cash efficient. IMO one of the main financial innovations from crypto. Lots of folks working on this, my buddy @MattyLitt22 can tell you all about it

[Benn Eifert 🥷🏴‍☠️ @bennpeifert]

Perpetual futures are a legitimately interesting and useful technological innovation from the crypto world. Tons of money gets lit on fire rolling from one maturity in ES futures into another. My friend Matty is working on this project, make sure to follow him and hit up his DMs

[House of Chimera @HouseofChimera]

Most perp DEXs patch over risk with OI caps, ADL, and vibes.

🔹 Reactive measures.
🔸 Inefficient markets.

But what if risk was priced before a position even hit the book, based on real volatility, not just imbalance?

That’s what @vestexchange is building

NEW 🚨

Massive drama going down on Hyperliquid involving $JELLY 👇

1.A trader opened a massive $6M short position on JellyJelly (a small coin, ~$20M mcap at the time).

2.This trader deliberately self-liquidated by pumping JellyJelly’s price on-chain. Essentially forcing himself out of the trade.

3.Hyperliquid was left holding the toxic short position, currently at a massive loss (-$10M+ PnL).

4.JellyJelly pumped from ~$10M market cap to $50M+ in under an hour due to the forced squeeze.

5.Hyperliquid could face full liquidation if JellyJelly reaches $150M mcap (currently ~3x away).

Market is watching closely, genuinely wild scenario unfolding live

[Justin @perpv2]

Most exchanges are designed to fail from day one.

Exchanges don’t control their own liquidity. Instead, they outsource pricing to third-party market makers—firms with no loyalty to the exchange and every incentive to do what’s best for them: when volatility hits, they pull liquidity, widen spreads, and let traders eat the cost. Traders get liquidated by bullshit scam wicks, they leave, and the exchange slowly dies.

The only way to win is to be your own market maker.
FTX had Alameda.
Hyperliquid has Chameleon / HLP.
Binance had Merit Peak and Sigma Chain—firms secretly controlled by CZ, who got sued by the SEC for trading against Binance users.

This raises ethical concerns. If the exchange needs to trade against their users, how do traders know they’re getting fair execution? The exchange sets the prices, decides when liquidity is available, and who gets liquidated. If they want to tighten spreads to attract volume, they can. If they want to widen them to extract more from traders, they can.

Below is a SOL visualization of a very popular orderbook exchange that has an internal MM...
They are the judge, jury, and executioner. They are the house, and the house always win.

The future of exchanges will break this tradeoff - ones that combine cutting-edge market making with provable guarantees of fair pricing. Liquidity will be always be ensured for traders without reliance on parties who have conflicts of interest of them.

We're building this at Vest.
