Project Background and Overview

StandX is a decentralized perpetual contract trading platform (DEX) scheduled to officially launch in July 2025. The project is led by key members of the former Binance contract team, including Binance contract head AG and contract director Justin, and the team also includes financial experts from Goldman Sachs.

StandX is positioned to combine decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional finance (TradFi) in an innovative model, aiming to provide users with an efficient and secure perpetual contract trading experience, while introducing the yield-bearing stablecoin $DUSD as the core product of the ecosystem.

Product Portfolio: Perpetual Contract DEX + Yield-bearing Stablecoin $DUSD, covering both trading and asset appreciation needs.

Perpetual Contract DEX

StandX's perpetual contract product is expected to achieve breakthroughs in the following areas:

High-performance Trading: Drawing on Binance contract's technical accumulation, it may adopt an optimized order matching mechanism or an on-chain/off-chain hybrid architecture.

Funding Rate Earnings: The funding rate mechanism of perpetual contracts provides a stable income source for the platform and users, which StandX considers an important component of $DUSD earnings.

User Friendliness: Emphasizing the transparency and security of decentralization, reducing counterparty risk.

Yield-bearing Stablecoin $DUSD

$DUSD is the first product launched by StandX, positioned as a yield-bearing stablecoin, aiming to provide users with stable asset preservation and passive income. Core features include:

Yield Sources:
Staking Earnings: Returns generated by investing assets in DeFi protocols or other high-yield strategies.
Perpetual Contract Funding Rate: Earnings distributed from the funding rate generated by trading activities on the StandX platform.
No Staking Mechanism: Users holding $DUSD can automatically earn annualized returns without a complex manual staking process.
Annualized Yield: In the current pre-deposit activity, $DUSD offers an annualized yield of up to 20%, far exceeding traditional stablecoins (such as 1-5% for USDT, USDC).

Pre-deposit Activity
StandX recently launched the $DUSD pre-deposit activity, aiming to attract early users and build initial liquidity. The activity rules are as follows:
Minting Mechanism: Users mint $DUSD using USDT, participating in the pre-deposit can earn up to 20% annualized returns.
