Core Features
Many platforms make trading inefficient with slow execution, high fees, and limited control over funds. VDEX is built to prioritize speed, enable full self-custody, and deliver seamless market access. It combines the efficiency of centralized platforms with the transparency and security of DeFi, enabling unrestricted trading under user-controlled conditions. Below are the core features that set VDEX apart:
CORE FEATURES
Omnichain Trading
In blockchain technology, different networks such as Ethereum, Arbitrum, or Solana usually operate in isolation, which makes trading across them complex. Traditionally, a process called bridging is required, where assets are locked on one network and recreated on another. Bridging often introduces delays, extra costs, and additional security risks.
VDEX enables omnichain trading, meaning trades can occur on multiple blockchains using a single account. All available liquidity, which refers to the total supply of assets available for buying and selling, is combined across these networks. This unified setup allows for faster trade execution, improved pricing, and eliminates the need for separate asset transfers between blockchains.
Full Self-Custody
Self-custody refers to holding and managing digital assets directly in a personal wallet, without relying on an exchange or third party for safekeeping.
VDEX enables full self-custody trading, meaning all trades are executed directly from a user-controlled wallet. Assets never leave personal control or enter the custody of VDEX, removing counterparty risk and ensuring ownership remains secure at all times.
ZeroGas Trading
VDEX processes trades through Virtual Rollups. Virtual Rollups is a technology that groups multiple transactions and calculates their final state using a secure computation layer. Only essential results are recorded on the blockchain, which reduces costs and enables instant trade confirmation. This design removes gas fees entirely, allowing positions to be opened and closed without transaction charges, preserving more capital for trading activities.
Sub-Millisecond Finality + No Slippage
Finality is the time it takes for a trade to be fully confirmed and irreversible. On VDEX, trades finalize in under a millisecond, guaranteeing the price you see is the price you get. Zero slippage, zero waiting for block confirmations, delivering instant and precise execution every time.
Sustainable BTC Yield
Deposit WBTC, WETH, USDT, and USDC as collateral into the Virtual Market Maker (VMM), a liquidity pool that dynamically allocates capital across markets, to earn passive yield while trading. Idle collateral can be deployed into the VMM to generate additional returns alongside trading activity.
No KYC, No VPN Restrictions
Access the platform freely from anywhere, including the U.S. No personal details. No VPN workarounds. Just trading the way it should be.
Operational Add-ons
MEV Protection
VDEX prevents Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) attacks, such as front-running and sandwiching, by leveraging P2P trade settlement and private state channels. This architecture ensures trades are executed at the displayed price, without exposure to bot-driven transaction manipulation.
Decentralized Limit Order Book (DLOB)
VDEX uses a decentralized order book system, giving traders full control over their bids and asks without relying on automated market makers. This model offers tighter spreads, better execution, and eliminates hidden fees common in other platforms.
Virtual Rollups Architecture
The Virtual Rollups are the backbone of VDEX, enabling sub-millisecond trade execution by separating fund custody (escrow) from trading state. This architecture lets traders settle via P2P while staying fully self-custodial.
Partial Liquidations
Instead of wiping out entire positions, VDEX gradually reduces exposure when a margin call is triggered. This protects traders from full liquidation and helps preserve their capital during volatile price swings.
Virtual Market Maker (VMM)
The VMM is a liquidity pool managed by the community that steps in to ensure order execution and fund liquidations. It provides stability to the platform while giving liquidity providers a chance to earn yields without impermanent loss
Insurance Fund (VIP)
The Virtual Insurance Pool (VIP) absorbs losses from unsuccessful liquidations and protects users against extreme market conditions. It acts as a backstop to ensure traders can always claim their profits and withdrawals.
Trustless Withdrawals
Users can withdraw funds directly from the settlement layer without relying on platform approval. Even if VDEX is down or compromised, traders can retrieve their assets using their latest trading state proof.
