PopLab Alpha Test Notes 001🤖
Over the past two weeks, we invited a selected group of traders into our PopLab Alpha Test.
The feedback was direct, detailed, and exactly what we needed. Based on it, we’ve shipped a new round of optimizations:
- Faster order placement, response, and position updates
- Smoother experience across key trading pages
- Multiple UI/UX refinements based on real trader workflows
PopDEX is being built with traders from day one — not just for them.
More Alpha slots will open gradually. Popping…
GM traders. New day, new pop.

Early Discord members can now claim the PopDEX OG Role before 12 PM UTC, May 27.
We have completed a $30M funding round led by @ForesightVen to build a trader-first Perp DEX focused on capital efficiency, trading experience, and returning platform value to real contributors.
The funding will be used to provide initial liquidity, enhance trading depth, accelerate product development, expand the core team, and strengthen PopDEX’s presence across global markets and communities.
PopDEX is now inviting selected traders to join our PopLab Closed Test, which is the early testing and co-building program for us as we continue refining the product with the community. The testing phase will focus on improving the trading process, capital efficiency, product interaction, risk control, and user experience.

So if you’re building a wallet, exchange, or payment app…
Utexo might be worth keeping on the radar.
Because the next wave of Bitcoin usage might not just be BTC transfers.
It might be dollar payments secured by Bitcoin.
Why Bitcoin Wallets Need to Watch Utexo

Everyone talks about Bitcoin as digital gold.
But what if Bitcoin could also become a global payment network for $$?
That’s basically the idea behind @utexocom
And honestly… it might matter more than people realize.

Early infrastructure tends to look boring at first.
APIs. Settlement layers. Payment routing.
But those are exactly the pieces that end up powering real adoption.
