How do decentralized perpetual contracts work? Don’t worry, here’s the quick rundown:
dYdX V4’s order book is maintained and matched off-chain by validators, with trade results then recorded on-chain.
The order book model works much like matching on a centralized exchange, with prices set by buyers and sellers. The pool model relies on oracle pricing, so oracle issues directly affect settlement.
In this space, the biggest expense has never been trading fees—it’s the costly lessons you pay for when you don’t understand the rules.
