PERPETUAL PROTOCOL - Next Level In Decentralized Trading? (Layer 2, Uniswap V3)

So what is Perpetual Protocol all about? What are some of the improvements that come with the recently launched version 2 of the protocol? How does it make use of Uniswap V3? And what are perpetual futures in the first place? You’ll find answers to these questions in this video.

Perpetual Protocol is a DeFi project with the main goal of creating the best, most accessible and most secure decentralized exchange for perpetual futures.

Perpetual Protocol was founded in 2019 by a small team of startup founders and software engineers. Initially called “Strike”, the project pivoted to perpetual futures and changed its name in the summer of 2020.

The first version of the protocol was launched on the xDai network in December 2020. Version 2 of the protocol named Curie after the famous scientist and a Noble Prize winner - Marie Curie, launched on Optimism on the 31st of November 2021.

The design of Perpetual Protocol that we’re going to explain later is extremely interesting as it leverages the DeFi “money legos” ethos to both build upon other already existing DeFi projects as well as provide building blocks for other protocols in the future.

Perpetual Protocol is one of the projects that focus on derivatives in DeFi. If you need a recap on what derivatives are and an overview of other protocols in this space I highly recommend watching my other video first.

How is one ready to tackle risk or possibly avoid it, that is why contacting a risk management team to also educate on this is very vital, thanks for the video

Risk management should always come first, the reason many traders lose money is not simply due to inexperience or a lack of knowledge of the market, but because of poor risk management

Finematics channel is *the* source of DeFi fundamentals. Should be offered in schools… high schools! 🏫

Finally a video from Finematics after such a long while! Love his videos!!!

[Undead]

You make the best DeFi videos out there. Keep it up!

[ThoughtfulGovernance]

Have you considered making a video about Superfluid / Ricochet Exchange?

[ianw]

Hooray! Finematics is back! Thanks for another excellent video

[DanielSerra]

Thanks very much. I dont use derivatives, but your videos always make my day a better day.

Could you make a video that has a visual explanation of the Curve wars/CVX token and all of the staking protocols and DAO's accumulating CVX in that maelstrom? It's confusing to read about but I get the sense that it's really important going forward for DeFi. Magnus Capital has a two-part explanation published on Medium that seems very detailed but it's a struggle to really understand all of the moving parts...a visual guide would be a godsend

This is the next level in Decentralized Trading, nice content

[harjotdosanjh]

Can you do a video on this Popsicle Finance project? Perhaps also the rest of Daniele Sesta's 'Frog Nation' protocols such as Abracadabra and Wonderland and how they tie together?

Great video as always!

[pabloaaaj]

Amazing!! Love your videos!! Thanks for sharing such a valuable piece of educational content!

[shreyasgk]

Where have you been?!? I missed your vids. Keep up the great work!

[GavinJones]

Which tool do you use to animate these videos?

[DiscoverCrypto]

Wonderful video, as always. I don't necessarily think Perp deserved its own unique video. There are tons of excellent perpetual trading protocols, including Tracer DAO, which I find superior.

is V2 still considered a vAMM then ? given that it's actually minting and LPing on Uni V3

[happyben]

Any reason you did not include dydx in this video?

[RB-wuus]

I wish he would do a distributed ledger video each week🙂

[maurofurfari]

do you know any defi protocol that allows using leveraged tokens?
