Anatoly Yakovenko brews fresh competition in the perpetual trading space.
The Scaling Solution
Percolator leverages Solana's high-throughput architecture to process trades at speeds that leave legacy exchanges in the dust. No more waiting for confirmations while markets move against you.
Lower Fees, Higher Leverage
By cutting out traditional intermediaries, the platform slashes trading costs while offering sophisticated leverage options. Finally, traders keep more of their profits instead of feeding the fee monster.
Market Impact
Existing DEX giants now face serious competition from someone who actually built the underlying technology. Because when the co-founder enters your space, you'd better have your code in order.
Another day, another attempt to disrupt the overpaid middlemen who still think blockchain is just a buzzword for their PowerPoint presentations.
