I’ve been testing Percolator Trade V2 on Devnet, and these are my 5 favorite things about it so far.
No hype. Just what actually stands out.
🧵
DAY 30/30 — THE FULL PERCOLATOR VISION
1/
30 days ago, we started with a simple idea:
What if anyone could create a perpetual market?
Now we’ve seen the architecture behind that idea.
And with devnet v2 launching today…
This is the full Percolator picture. 🧵
DAY 29/30 — WHY PERMISSIONLESS PERPS MATTER
1/
For years, perpetual markets followed a familiar model:
A platform decides what gets listed.
Percolator asks a different question:
What if the infrastructure itself was permissionless?
🧵
DAY 28/30 — THE PERCOLATOR STACK
1/
Percolator isn’t just a perp trading interface.
Underneath a single trade is a stack of systems working together:
Token → Market → Oracle → Risk Engine → Keeper → Settlement
Here’s how all the pieces connect. 🧵
DAY 27/30 — LIQUIDITY: THE CAPITAL BEHIND THE MARKET
1/
A perp market can exist on-chain.
But without liquidity, trading becomes difficult.
For Percolator, this raises an important question:
Where does the liquidity behind a permissionless market come from? 🧵
DAY 26/30 — HOW A PERMISSIONLESS MARKET GETS CREATED
1/
What does it actually take to create a perp market on Percolator?
The idea is deliberately simple:
Choose an eligible SPL token → configure the market → deploy.
No listing committee. No central approval. 🧵
DAY 25/30 — ONE ENGINE. MANY MARKETS.
1/
Percolator is trying to solve two problems at once:
Anyone should be able to create a perp market.
And those markets shouldn’t require a completely different risk system every time.
And this is where it gets really interesting . 🧵
DAY 24/30 — THE LONG TAIL
1/
Crypto has thousands of tokens.
Most will never get listed on a major derivatives venue.
Not necessarily because nobody wants to trade them, but because traditional markets won’t allow it.
Percolator challenges that model. 🧵
DAY 23/30 — ORACLES & THE LONG-TAIL PROBLEM
1/
Perpetual markets need a price.
But for Percolator, the harder question is:
Where does that price come from when almost any SPL token can become a perp market?
That is the long-tail oracle problem. 🧵
