⚡ Two programs running this October: $100K Trading Competition $50K Affiliate Booster Program Both centered around the @pp_trading partnership. Here's what's happening: 🧵

Telegram trading bots have been a real breakthrough. Perps trading though never migrated to the handy Telegram UX – though this could be a huge catalyst for adoption. That's the reason why I paid attention to the latest announcement from @dYdX – Pocket Pro Bot release, supercharged by social trading narrative. To celebrate, a $100K Social Trading Competition kicks off Oct 1 (part of $1M in rewards across Pocket Pro). Here’s the rundown ↓ TL;DR • First-ever social trading experience for dYdX • Trade solo or with friends, right in Telegram via t.me/pocketprotecto… • $1M in total trading rewards across Pocket Pro Competition details • Competition: Oct 1–31 (4 weeks) • Prize pool: $100K • $50K for squads, $50K for individuals. • Squads are ranked by PnL. Individuals by volume. There’s no new UI and no clunky onboarding; everything happens inside Telegram. If you want to social trade: Add the bot to your group of friends, trade together, flex PnL cards and leaderboard positions, and keep the banter alive as rankings shift in real time. Or – you can also trade solo! THE BIGGER PICTURE In all my posts I try to watch events strategically. The dYdX Pocket Pro Bot isn't just a marketing stunt– it's a strategic bet on the future of retail trading. • Telegram perps are massively underexplored compared to spot trading • Social trading psychology is powerful for leveraged products • dYdX has first-mover advantage in a potentially huge market • ROI math works even with conservative adoption rates • Market timing is perfect as perp DEX competition intensifies My prediction: Telegram perps will capture 5-10% of total perp volume by 2026, and dYdX is positioning to own a significant chunk of that market. The real question isn't whether Telegram perps will work – it's whether dYdX can execute better than the inevitable copycats. So this is definitely a VERY promising release. DYOR. NFA. Perps not available in the U.S., Canada, or restricted regions.

Can't wait for @dYdX’s multi-stage performance evolution: 1⃣ Today — full node gossip across all validators. 2⃣ Designated proposers — predictable topology for faster routing (available in v9 software upgrade). 3⃣ Order Entry Gateway Service (OEGS) — specialized nodes for direct, one-hop delivery to proposers (available after v9 upgrade). This staged evolution ensures each layer builds on order latency improvements while keeping the protocol’s decentralized governance and consensus guarantees intact. LFG! ⚡️
