Vertex: Edge of Tomorrow

Blockworks Research

Vertex has established itself as a formidable player in the perps DEX landscape. Its strategic approach to chain expansion, focusing on EVM-compatible networks and leveraging incentive programs, has proven largely successful. The reduced time-to-launch for each new chain integration highlights the team's growing expertise and the scalability of their technology. As Vertex continues to expand, it is well-positioned to capitalize on the increasing fragmentation of the perpetual DEX market, potentially consolidating liquidity across multiple chains through its Edge technology.

MetaDAO: Market Incentives for Improved Decision-Making

Blockworks Research

MetaDAO offers a platform for DAOs to engage in futarchy, using conditional markets and profit incentives for improved decision-making. Conditional markets allow market participants to speculate on whether or not the passage of a proposal will increase a token’s market value. By crowdsourcing information from market actors, DAOs can utilize futarchy to identify decisions that will be most beneficial for their token’s market price. MetaDAO as an organization is explicitly engaged in decision-making on the criteria that market participants believe a decision will be accretive to the price of the META token.
