⚔️ Trade directly on xDai
The native xDai interface gives you more control and improved reliability
Why trade via xDai?
Trading via Ethereum is no longer supported.
- All trades must be made via xDai.
- Any positions you opened via Ethereum can now be managed from xDai.
- No additional action is needed from you.
All trades on Perpetual Protocol happen on xDai. Trades made via Ethereum are passed to xDai using a transaction relay. This allows you to trade without paying for gas, but it has a few drawbacks:
- No control over gas price and limit
- Not compatible with hardware wallets
- Occasionally has service outages or unexpected issues
How to set up xDai trading
- 1.Click the wallet icon on the upper right of perp.exchange
- 2.Click Disconnect
- 3.Click Connect
- 4.Click the option for Trezor or Ledger (it doesn't matter which one)
- 5.Metamask will walk you through adding the xDai network, or help you switch network if you already have it set up.
You will need xDAI for paying gas fees:
