The dYdX Community Advances Trading on dYdX Chain to Full Trading
The dYdX community has recently voted to progress trading on the dYdX chain (DYDX) from the beta stage to Full Trading. This decision follows a preparatory phase that saw trading advance from the Alpha to the Beta phase. During the Beta phase, the platform achieved a trading volume of approximately $1.86 million.
With the launch of Full Trading, validators and stakers will continue earning rewards. Additionally, Chaos Labs has designed a 6-month incentive program for active traders on the dYdX chain. The program aims to distribute $20 million worth of rewards for various trading activities.
One-way Bridge from ETH to dYdX
Alongside the launch of Full Trading, there will be a migration from the Ethereum (ETH) chain to dYdX using a one-way bridge called the wethDYDX Smart Contract. This process involves users exchanging their ethDYDX tokens for wethDYDX on Ethereum and DYDX tokens on the dYdX Chain.
In late October, the dYdX foundation announced its support for the native layer-1 dYdX Chain and its pivot away from Ethereum. Following its launch, the DYDX token experienced significant volatility but has since stabilized between $1.50 and $3. As of now, it is valued at $3.19.
