Duo 🌊

XD

🎉 Thrilled to bring @the0xjose onto the team as co-founder! Joe's rare combination of deep technical understanding and strategic vision makes him invaluable to our mission. His passion for DeFi derivatives and big-picture thinking will be instrumental as we build Pacifica into a full-fledged financial ecosystem that powers a significant part of tomorrow's markets. We're also excited to welcome @digitaliquid to our growth and operations team, covering US hours with his exceptional exchange development experience and sharp market intuition. Our growth team spans global time zones: @_guynemer - brings fresh perspective and relentless execution to our growth efforts. @duo_du0 - combines analytical rigor with creative strategy to drive user adoption. And our beloved @pacifica_intern - the heart of our community happiness index. This is an experienced team that's shipped real products and built real communities. When you have operators who've been through multiple cycles, everyone knows exactly what matters most: rock-solid product, deep liquidity, and a friendly interface that actually works when you need it. No fancy gimmicks - just the core fundamentals that users care about. Building exchanges and financial infrastructure isn't a sprint - it's a marathon. While crypto moves fast and everyone wants instant results, the protocols that actually succeed are built with patience, precision, and an obsession with getting the fundamentals right. At Pacifica, we ship quickly but we build to last. We're not just building for today’s impatient market - we're architecting the foundation that will power financial markets for decades to come. 🚀

@ConstanceWaing @The0xJose Intern reporting for duty!

@ConstanceWaing Well said. Proud to be part of the team!

A month ago on June 10th, we launched our closed beta with mainnet. Six months of building while everyone said it was impossible to launch something this complex so fast. “You are too late,” they said. “You should have started building 2 years ago.” I thought we could do it, so I brushed away the noise and kept my head down building. We started from scratch. Alpha testnet in 3 months, closed beta with mainnet in 6. No copy-paste shortcuts, just pure dedication to building a better product and countless sleepless nights. We didn’t raise any fund so there were no paid shills or monthly retainer. Our incentive programs haven’t launched. We are honest with everyone who found us and wanted to work with us about what we can offer and what we can’t. At the precise one-month mark of our closed beta launch, we hit $10M daily volume - all organic growth. Every day since launch brings more volume, more users. But what truly excites me is waking up to the same group of people fighting alongside me, all sharing this wild dream of building something great and changing the world. People ask why I chose to build another exchange from scratch. This feeling right here is part of the answer. If there is gonna be more than one platform you want to trade on, Pacifica will be one of them. Like always, I’m grateful for all the support. Excited for what's next. Pacifica 🌊

Day 5 Team Competition Leaderboard is LIVE! 🏆 The top two spots remain unchallenged holding strong yet again! But there's a shake-up in third place… a new contender has entered the leaderboard! Solo traders continue to steal the spotlight, outperforming full teams. With 200+ traders battling it out and $5,000 in USDC still on the line, there are only 2 days left to rise up the ranks! Don’t miss your chance! 🌊

@inversebrah can we ask @ThinkingUSD what dating a 10 yr old supermodel feels like?

Agreed. This is what real, healthy competition should looks like. It goes without saying that perp-exchanges will always have a PMF in crypto, and it’s simply up to who executes best. Excited to see how the Firedancer upgrade means for onchain perps in the Solana ecosystem, and I have absolute faith in @pacifica_fi’s ability to be an integral part of Solana’s narrative!
