Interesting to see how the conversation around perps has changed.


A year ago, most people only cared about liquidity.
Now, I'm seeing more traders care about how they trade just as much as where they trade.
The infrastructure is maturing.
Good execution, self-custody, and a clean workflow are becoming real differentiators. If I'm switching between crypto, equities, and macro narratives during the week, I don't want my setup slowing me down.
For me, it's becoming less about chasing the newest platform and more about finding a workflow that actually fits how I trade.
Lately I've been using @OneKeyHQ because I prefer trading through a self-custodial wallet instead of leaving funds on a centralized exchange. It fits naturally with how I already manage my on-chain assets, while giving me access to multiple markets from the same setup.
I'm not saying it's the only way to trade, it's simply the workflow that's been working well for me lately.
Curious what everyone else values most these days.
Liquidity?
Execution?
Risk management?
Or staying self-custodied while trading?
