Roadmap

dreamDEX v1.0 lays the foundations: a fully on-chain CLOB, zero fees, USDso settlement, and first-class access for agents and algos. Everything after that closes the gap with centralised venues, until CEXs run out of advantages.

v1.0: Spot foundations (now)

The endgame DEX, opening at the foundation. CEX-grade execution, self-custodial settlement, zero maker and taker fees on every pair, agents-first by design.

What this unlocks: institutional desks, market makers, algorithmic traders, retail, and autonomous agents all trading on the same book.

What's next

Built in priority order. The roadmap takes the endgame DEX past CEX parity into territory no centralised venue can reach.

Builder-codes / fee-rebate program

Formal rebate scheme for apps that route flow into dreamDEX. Frontends, aggregators, and agent apps embed the book and keep the economics for themselves.

Perpetual futures

Leveraged perpetuals settled through the same venue as spot. Six-stage liquidation waterfall. Same transparent ruleset: every margin threshold, liquidation stage, and ADL condition published in advance, no discretionary intervention.

Yield-bearing collateral (for traders)

Idle margin doesn't sit dead on the venue. Traders can opt in to lend stablecoin collateral via dreamDEX's integrated lending protocol while full margin availability is preserved, and recall it instantly. No other major perp venue offers this; collateral elsewhere earns zero.

Sub-10ms matching engine

The latency layer that unlocks systematic and latency-sensitive strategies on-chain. Enabled by a consensus algorithm upgrade grounded in Social Choice theory. Targeted Q4 2026; final latency to be confirmed on testnet.

MEV-resistance and fair order sequencing

Arrival-time priority at the validator level. Market makers quote tighter when they don't need to price in front-run risk.

Transaction-level privacy primitives

Institutional-grade flow protection at size. Something no CEX can credibly offer without a custodian.

The endgame

Together these close the gap completely. CEXs lose their last advantage. dreamDEX becomes the venue institutions commit flow to, and the substrate agentic trading is built on.
