SPAN risk management settles trillions each day in traditional futures markets BULK is the first to bring it onchain Perps traders deserve better than the current status quo, soon they will have it

@junbug_sol JUNBANGER ALERT

This is exactly why we’re building @bulktrade You can deposit tokenised gold directly as collateral and short the gold perp against it - no borrow/lend required Our portfolio margin engine (SPAN-style) recognises the correlation between your gold collateral and your short gold perp. The effective margin requirement is near-zero because the position is naturally hedged at the portfolio level. On binance, you would need USDC to margin the short, If you hold gold, you're forced to either sell it or borrow USDC against it through a separate lending protocol - paying interest, taking on liquidation risk, and fragmenting your position across two systems We are merge the exchange, clearing house, and prime brokerage stack into one system. In TradFi these are separate entities - the exchange matches orders, the clearing house nets risk, and the prime broker extends cross-asset margining. Each adds a layer of cost and a lot of counterparty risk. BULK collapses all three into a single protocol - your collateral, positions, and risk are evaluated as one unified portfolio with no intermediaries between them

@junbug_sol tick by tick

When designing these features, we asked ourselves and our traders - how can we solve the most clunky, complex problems. And this is our shot at building the best exchange possible: Sub Accounts are off-curve addresses that hold no private key and your master account owns them; a simple authorization model that is safe, & doesn't require emails or special api keys. to make it intuitive we designed the UI to act like a tab switcher just like how a browser would - having multiple accounts with their own layouts, strategies or settings, & seamlessly switch between them. To enable margin transfers between any account in the network - we built a native gasless transfer layer that moves assets between users all under 20ms! Last but not least the most important for institutional and power users is a multisig baked in the network - which has timelocks, expiry and other modules too You can place orders or any action a normal account can do through a multisig I am super excited to see cool things built utilising these tools - New payments apps that also offer finance / yield that work as neobanks; all while connected to the fastest execution exchange in crypto. A cool security focused trading app like @fusewallet where my passkey, email and wallet are a 2/3 multisig that allows me to seamlessly place / manage my trades from a mobile app Our vision has always been one exchange, infinite markets and to build that we are expanding these rails to support development of next billion dollar apps that consumers will love using - powered by BULK tick by tick 🫡

@kdotcrypto Perps

To be a category leader, that particular category has to be your sole focus The super app thesis has mostly left teams with a bunch of products that aren’t particularly competitive We have one goal, it is the same thing we wake up, and go to sleep thinking about… Perps

It needs to be able to handle millions of users It needs to look and feel like a winning exchange It needs to be @bulktrade

@kdotcrypto Return to DeFi

Independent validators are more important than ever Infrastructure needs to be resistant to censorship Leaderless architecture is needed now more than ever The global house of finance must be borderless Now is the time to return to DeFi

One of the apps I currently enjoy the most is community made Such a cool looking analytics platform linked to BULK, showcasing a wide range of data s/o @momotavrrr for building this

@minnus purpose. built. performance.

Bulk runs perps execution on a sidecar network operated by Solana validators. Purpose-built performance without abandoning the validator set. The risk engine is closer to CME SPAN than anything live in crypto, and if the model works, it becomes a a new template: validators as application-specific infrastructure providers, unlocking TAMs that L1 execution alone may not be able to support. We break it down here:
