The Aptos ecosystem introduces the Decibel on-chain trading platform, starting development and testing

According to reports, the on-chain trading protocol Decibel, supported by Aptos, has been launched on the Aptos Devnet and is open for invitation-based testing. The platform integrates spot trading, perpetual contracts, and yield strategies, capable of supporting cross-margin accounts and composable vaults. Decibel's goal is to achieve one million orders per second, with block generation times of less than 20 milliseconds, providing trading speeds comparable to centralized exchanges (CEX) while maintaining the transparency required by decentralized finance (DeFi). Aptos Labs is involved in the development of the platform and will continue to support its upgrades, while the Decibel Foundation is responsible for the platform's governance, positioning it as the financial execution layer on the Aptos chain.
