By leveraging the robust security and unparalleled network effects of Bitcoin, combined with the flexibility and capital efficiency of perpetual contracts, Velar Artha opens up a new frontier in decentralized finance. The Velar Artha platform is built on BOB, the Bitcoin layer-2 that supports lightning-fast trades, enhanced scalability, and reduced transaction costs while maintaining the security guarantees of the Bitcoin network. This allows traders to engage with sophisticated financial products without ever leaving the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Velar CEO Mithil Thakore said: “The launch of the first Bitcoin PerpDex isn’t just a milestone for Velar and BOB, but for the entire Bitcoin DeFi ecosystem. It unlocks a powerful new use case for L2 assets while leveraging the untapped liquidity of the Bitcoin network. The ability to make perpetual swaps onchain forms a versatile DeFi primitive that will allow bitcoiners to do more with their assets.”
The beta launch of Velar Artha PerpDex allows traders to begin accessing perpetual contracts with leverage of up to 20x. The mainnet launch has been bootstrapped with sufficient liquidity to ensure users can create leveraged positions for the most popular trading pairs. Initial liquidity will be gradually increased, allowing traders to interact with the platform’s full feature set.
DeFi users are invited to participate in Velar Artha’s beta phase and provide feedback and insights that will help to enhance the world’s first Bitcoin PerpDex. A host of upgrades are already scheduled for the coming months including additional trading pairs, enhanced UI/UX, advanced trading tools and analytics, and community governance initiatives.
Velar is on a mission to unlock the billions of dollars in untapped liquidity that exist on Bitcoin. Through innovations such as Velar Artha, Velar is pioneering new ways for BTC to be utilized onchain. As a result, bitcoiners can grow their digital wealth while retaining full custody of their assets.
The beta launch of Velar Artha PerpDex represents a significant leap forward in the Bitcoin ecosystem. For the first time, traders can engage with perpetual contracts directly on a Bitcoin-native platform, combining the security and liquidity of Bitcoin with the flexibility of perpetual swaps.
