Fast, low‑cost perpetual trading with self‑custody
edgeX brings an order‑book derivatives experience to DeFi via Layer‑2 scaling. It’s designed for traders who want centralized exchange speed with on‑chain settlement and wallet‑owned custody.
Order‑book Perpetuals
Professional matching & limit orders for tighter spreads and precise execution.
Layer‑2 Scaling
On‑chain settlement with high throughput and minimal fees.
Self‑Custody
Trade from your wallet — you keep control of private keys and withdrawals.
Pro‑Trader UX
Advanced charts, order types, and mobile access for active traders.
How it works
- Connect a compatible Ethereum wallet and choose Layer‑2 network.
- Deposit collateral into the edgeX smart contracts (you retain keys).
- Place orders on the order book (spot and perpetual pairs supported).
- Set leverage, monitor margin and manage positions. Withdraw anytime.
Key risks & considerations
- Regulatory restrictions: users in some jurisdictions may be restricted.
- Smart contract & protocol risk — audits reduce but don't eliminate risk.
- Perpetuals are high‑risk instruments with potential for rapid liquidation.
- Self‑custody means you are solely responsible for key security.
