Sub-Millisecond Finality

VDEX transactions execute directly between market participants, not via a central hub. The elimination of middlemen accelerates trading speeds to the theoretical limit. The removal of wallet pop ups and VPN requirements further hasten settlement time.

The finality benchmark assumes that participants are engaging in co-geographically located clients. Distance to counterparty will proportionally increase settlement latency. As network participation increases, VDEX's intelligent routing will match participants to minimize individual and overall execution time.

Compared against this benchmark, VDEX transactions settle 200x faster than Hyperliquid, 400x faster than Solana, and 12,000 faster than Ethereum. As compared to peer-to-peer direct settlement, excessive blockchain latencies persist in spite of efforts to centralize validator sets.
