Architect’s traditional perpetuals exchange AX, one of the fastest-growing regulated derivatives exchanges in history, is opening trading to individuals and omnibus brokers. With $3B notional in <6 months in institutional trading, we’re excited to welcome a new investor class. We launched AX in February with the conviction that building the largest global regulated exchange for traditional asset perpetuals starts with addressing the needs of institutions and professional market participants: robust risk controls, institutional-grade infrastructure, responsible leverage, wash-trading and market manipulation prevention, no internal market maker, and a clear tier-1 regulatory framework. Our GTM strategy was a risk we took based on ambition, industry experience, intuition, and discipline. Our team is now ready to win the opportunities that risk has yielded, in expanding our markets internationally and building what’s needed here in US derivatives markets. AX offers individual traders the same benefits that have enabled our institutional customers to grow the exchange this large this quickly: a market-defining UX, infrastructure built by elite industry experts, superior book liquidity, low fees and open incentive programs, high-throughput and full-featured APIs, competitive margin, 24/7 one-on-one support, no auto-liquidation or ADL. Join us for the next stage of AX and Architect.
