Let’s dive deep into a hybrid on-chain finance platform with highly innovative power today—one that fully breaks away from the inherent limitations of traditional CEXs and ordinary Perp DEXs, delivering a brand-new solution for both traders and asset holders. Currently, the industry broadly suffers from a capital fragmentation pain point: users’ BTC, stablecoins, and various tokens are scattered across wallets, lending protocols, and trading platforms. When used as trading margin, they can’t generate yield; when held for yield, they can’t be quickly deployed for trading positions. Repeated transfers not only waste on fees but also cause missed market opportunities. GRVT’s original unified single-account One Balance system perfectly resolves this capital leakage issue. Built on the ZKsync ZK Validium zero-knowledge application chain, the platform uses an off-chain high-speed order book for matching combined with an on-chain settlement model. It can process hundreds of thousands of transactions per second with extremely low latency, matching the trading smoothness of leading centralized exchanges—while enabling full user self-custody of assets throughout. There’s no need to hand funds over to the platform for custody, effectively eliminating security risks such as exchange shutdowns or asset misappropriation, and balancing trading experience with capital sovereignty. The team background is equally formidable: the founding members all come from traditional finance and top tech organizations such as Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse, DBS, and Meta. They have cumulatively completed over $33 million in multiple funding rounds and received strong endorsements from well-known institutions including Delphi Ventures and the ZKsync Foundation. Professional financial thinking is deeply integrated with underlying crypto technology. At the platform’s core revenue layer, idle margin funds automatically earn yield, with an annualized return of up to 11%. Margin positions and asset appreciation occur in sync—truly achieving “no idle capital.” After two quarters of user activity and accumulation, GRVT’s TVL surged by 847%, open interest for perpetual contracts increased by dozens of times, and cumulative trading volume surpassed the scale of hundreds of billions. The market growth rate is far higher than other projects in the same track. In the future, the platform will continue expanding into the real-world assets (RWA) track, launching tokenized institutional-grade assets such as tokenized U.S. stocks and government bonds, and connecting trading, wealth management, and institutional investing into a unified on-chain finance ecosystem. Unlike most DEXs that only focus on contract trading, GRVT aims to build a private on-chain bank that everyone can participate in. With as little as $1, users can join institutional-grade yield strategies. There’s no forced KYC, protecting user privacy, and zero-knowledge proofs ensure every transaction is verifiable and transparent. With the token issuance plan rolling out, community incentive mechanisms will continue to release value. Whether you’re a short-term derivatives trader or a long-term holder seeking stable yield, you can find use cases in the GRVT ecosystem that fit your needs—combining near-term trading value with long-term ecosystem growth potential.
