dYdX Eyes US Market Entry: Decentralized Crypto Exchange Plans Year-End Debut, Reuters
dYdX (DYDX), one of the leading decentralized cryptocurrency trading platforms in the industry, is reportedly preparing to enter the US market by the end of the year, following the recent shift in crypto policies by the Trump administration. dYdX Expands Amid Supportive Legislation In an interview with Reuters, Eddie Zhang, the president of dYdX, emphasized the importance of this move, stating that having a presence in the United States aligns with the platform’s future direction. Unlike centralized exchanges such as Coinbase (COIN) and Kraken, which act as intermediaries between buyers and sellers, dYdX aims to eliminate the middleman, allowing users to transact directly on a blockchain network that underpins cryptocurrencies.

Since its inception, dYdX has surpassed $1.5 trillion in total trading volume. As part of its expansion strategy, dYdX plans to introduce spot trading for Solana (SOL) and other linked cryptocurrencies, potentially including XRP and Cardano (ADA), to US users by the end of the year. This move comes in the wake of President Donald Trump’s increased support for the cryptocurrency sector, which has led to the dismissal of numerous lawsuits against major crypto platforms and prompted financial regulators to develop specialized rules for digital assets. These new measures include Congress’s passage of the GENIUS Act earlier this year and the potential passage of the Market Structure Bill. Together, these measures address the industry’s call for a new framework that could boost adoption and growth of the broader digital asset ecosystem in the US. Trading Fees Slashed, Prospective Offerings Awaiting Guidance Upon its entry into the US market, Reuters reports that dYdX intends to reduce its trading fees significantly, with plans to cut them by as much as half, bringing them down to between 50 and 65 basis points. However, while perpetual contracts will not be available to US users immediately, Zhang expressed hope that regulators will eventually provide the necessary guidance for decentralized platforms to offer these products.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) recently issued a joint statement indicating their willingness to consider allowing crypto perpetual contracts to trade across regulated platforms in the US, which could pave the way for dYdX’s future offerings. As of this writing, the platform’s native token, DYDX, is trading at approximately $0.30. However, the token has experienced a significant decline of nearly 68% over the past year, shedding about $1.43 billion in market cap value. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com
