Perpfun, a simple Perpetual Trading Platform by @perenniallabs
As I mentioned last time, there is a simple futures platform called Perpfun, which is operated by
Perennial.
It's a scary bastard that makes even the biggest dumb trader like Pagu to open a position easily
Because...
- It opens positions at market price, but with Stop Loss / Take Profit in percentage automatically
- Simple, supports BTC/ETH/SOL only, with 100x leverage
- Supports copy trading from top traders
@perpdotfun
When trading through Perpfun, trades are executed through Perennial's trading system.
Perennial is,
- Working with Celestia (Modular DA), Conduit (Rollup), Succint (ZK-fraud proof), and more.
- Former Coinbase members + Coinbase Ventures funding
- Point system with limited inflation that only 1.25M points distributed per week
Trying out @perpdotfun
Never been a fan of perps—always felt too clunky to set up.
But https://t.co/rrwfRRKySD nailed the UX. Clean, simple, and honestly fun to use.
+86.07% on BTC doesn’t hurt either.
3 months of perpfun 🎂
In that time, we’ve seen thousands of trades, leaderboard rallies, and fresh-born perps traders.
All while keeping one thing true:
Trading doesn’t need to feel complicated, cold, or institutional.
It can be instinctive, simple, and fun.
Here’s our vision for perpfun 🌱 🌱 🌱

We’ve been wired to think stress equals sophistication. That serious means smart. That finance can’t be fun. It’s all fugazi.
Here’s what many don't admit:
Trading is quite simple. You place a view, you size your conviction, and you let it play out.
Perps are just a tool in which to do so.
The real complexity isn’t the product, it’s the walls built around it. The jargon, the clunky UIs, the gatekeeping.
It’s not hard. Products to date have just made it feel that way.

What happens when you take the raw instinct of making a directional bet
+
match it with a high-performance engine under the hood
+
cut out everything that clutters the experience - 100s of tickers, charts & toggles?
= You get a whole new experience. A damn nice one.

Our thesis:
1) Perps don’t need to feel sterile. Trading can be visceral, visual, and actually enjoyable.
2) Most retail traders aren’t looking for 100 tickers and a candlestick graveyard. They just want a clean way to express conviction on bluechips / the general market.
3) Social trading caught on, but it rewards popularity over performance. We believe competitive trading is the better flywheel. It attracts real skill and gives others a shot to ride with it.
