DerivaDEX is a decentralized cryptocurrency derivatives exchange for perpetual swaps, governed from day one by the DerivaDAO and its DDX token. It aims to pair the performance and usability of a centralized exchange with the custody and transparency of DeFi, using on-chain settlement, an insurance fund, trade mining, and a checkpointed price feed. DerivaDEX publishes a public REST API (exchange system and market-data endpoints plus protocol/stats aggregations) documented at docs.derivadex.io and exchange.derivadex.com/api-docs, an Authenticated REST API and a Realtime API, an on-chain explorer, and a governance app. Mainnet runs as a limited-access pilot on Ethereum with a public Sepolia testnet, and the exchange is licensed by the Bermuda Monetary Authority. Backed by Polychain Capital.
