@globemkts has come out of stealth as a social trading app built on ATLAS, the exchange engine from @LayerZero_Core. Traders form small groups called gangs, share calls and positions, and can copy one another, with every call and fill recorded onchain.

The app is positioned as the first social trading app built on LayerZero ATLAS. According to Globe's website, it combines spot, perpetual futures, stocks and social trading in one app on web and mobile, and lets users deposit assets from any chain.

What Globe Plans to Offer

Globe will launch with perpetual futures markets covering crypto, stocks and commodities. It will also include voice orders and AI agents that trade within limits set by the user. The product description on Globe's site refers to session keys with guardrail policies and a single MCP surface for agent access, which is the mechanism for keeping automated trading inside user-defined boundaries.

Early sign-ups are being offered "Founding Trader" status ahead of launch.

How ATLAS and Zero Fit In

ATLAS is LayerZero's trading backend. Crypto Briefing reports that it bundles matching, clearing and settlement into one system and is the first application built on Zero, LayerZero's own blockchain. Globe's site says ATLAS handles matching, clearing, settlement and risk on Zero, so trades get exchange-grade speed without giving up custody.

ATLAS is described in LayerZero's documentation as a "headless exchange," meaning it has no consumer app of its own. Blockonomi notes that third-party venues handle user access, distribution and trading interfaces. Globe fills that role as both the app and the venue.

LayerZero has set Nov 30 as the go-live date for the Zero mainnet and ATLAS. The launch starts with Open ATLAS, which is aimed at crypto-native trading applications. Crypto.news reports that more than a dozen trading venues are expected at launch, with more to follow before year-end.

For venues, the economics are tied to the LayerZero token. According to Finwire, Open ATLAS plans to use 75% of fees remaining after venue rebates to buy and burn $ZRO.

Globe's launch will test whether social features such as group chats and copy trading can draw users to onchain exchange infrastructure. The app's performance will depend on the mainnet going live as scheduled.
