A few days ago, during arbitrage, sometimes due to slow network latency, I would directly miss out on 50% of the profit. The market has been racing for a long time, whether it's traditional high-frequency trading or various MEV strategies, those who run slower get cut.
It's even more true in trading; as long as there is a continuous matching order book, traders will suffer losses. Everyone only cares about who runs faster, and ignores whether the price is more appropriate.
The emergence of @poddotnetwork might break this deadlock, which definitely exceeds the scope of ordinary perpetual DEXs. This is a genuine upgrade to the underlying trading infrastructure.
1. How does Pod reshape the game rules?
1️⃣ A Layer 1 built for trading: This is a high-performance blockchain designed specifically for trading. It comes with its own matching engine, clearing system, and oracle, with confirmation times under 150 milliseconds.
2️⃣ Completely eliminate front-running: The system's core uses batch matching and a unified clearing mechanism. All orders are packaged within time windows and cleared at a unified price, fundamentally preventing structural arbitrage.
3️⃣ Return trading to its essence: On Pod, no one can rely on network speed to gain an advantage. The key to winning shifts entirely to pure information judgment and price competition.
4️⃣ 24/7 global core asset trading: Pod supports on-chain perpetual trading around the clock. The first batch of assets is very hardcore: US stocks: $AAPL, $NVDA, $GOOGL; indices: $Q, $S&P500; commodities: gold, etc.
5️⃣ Backed by top institutions: The project has completed a $10 million seed round funding, led by a16z and 1kx.
2. Early Bird Waitlist Participation Process 🐦
1️⃣ Lossless Lock-in: Deposit USDC on Arbitrum. Funds are fully custody on-chain, with no lock-up period for deposits and withdrawals. After mainnet launch, these funds will automatically migrate to the Pod network for trading.
2️⃣ Points Leaderboard: Your deposit amount plus the number of referrals will jointly determine your ranking on the leaderboard.
3️⃣ Unlock Benefits: The higher your rank, the earlier you can unlock Early Access on the mainnet. The earlier you enter, the higher your ranking! You know how it is 😋!
