We had a great time hosting a SXSW event on our office rooftop yesterday. We held a panel on building on @base with @ZacPrater and @HydrexFi. Thanks to everyone who came by and joined the conversation!

We're hosting a @sxsw event alongside our friends @HydrexFi next on march 17th at our office rooftop. Swing by if you’re in town 🤠 luma.com/jxx4h6ki

For the next 48 hours, we’re running a trading competition for our current beta testers, with cash prizes and points toward our future airdrop. We’ve just invited the next batch of testers - sign up if you’d like to join the next wave 👉opaldex.com/dexwaitlist

We just wrapped our first AMA of 2026. We announced private beta (launching tomorrow), what we've been working on behind the scenes, and what the next phase looks like as things start to accelerate. If you’re following what we’re building, this one’s worth the listen.

We’ve been building quietly. Now we’re opening the doors. Private beta starts next week, with additional invites rolling out in the following weeks. Early usage counts toward our points program and airdrop. Apply here → opaldex.com/dexwaitlist

We’ve fully re-locked our team supply. Our supply remains 100% uncompromised. ZERO given to KOLs, insiders, or sold by the team, just like we promised our community months ago. In the coming days, we’ll open applications for our private beta - with even bigger announcements to follow. 2026 is the year the perpetual DEX market changes forever. team.finance/view-coin/0x19…

COMPETITION + WHAT’S NEXT Competition is moving fast. Lighter was called out as impressive, with real scale and strong execution. Opal’s positioning remains consistent: the market’s top traders want privacy that actually holds up under scrutiny. House-blind execution is the wedge. What’s next: The team teased a launch feature they believe is genuinely new and designed to make traders money. Details aren’t public yet for competitive reasons. Beta: Private rollout to testers is approaching. If you want in, DM. Appreciate everyone who joined the AMA and kept the questions sharp. See you in 2026. (5/5)

Wrapping up 2025 with our final AMA on 12.18.2025. We covered product, tokenomics, go-to-market, and community priorities, directly from questions in the room. Key highlights: -Points + airdrop: Planned and designed to be funded via buybacks, with no surprise dilution. -Staking + revenue share: Turns on when revenue is live, with sharing beginning as soon as revenue exists. -Competitive edge: True house-blind privacy, plus a new feature we believe will meaningfully shift the perp trading experience. Full breakdown below. (1/5)

Behind the scenes look at the $OPAL office. I don’t like remote work - startups demand speed. Being in the same room with the team lets us build fast and make decisions in real time. Sharing more BTS on how we’re building the future of perp trading soon.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve made major progress on core infrastructure and are gearing up for our invite-only beta. Here’s an early sneak peek recorded by our Co-founder & CTO @kenzanboo 👀
