Aevo
PROS
- + Unique options markets alongside perpetuals — one of the only DEX platforms offering onchain vanilla options alongside 148+ perpetual pairs

- + No KYC required — fully non-custodial trading by connecting any EVM wallet, accessible globally except US, Canada, and China
CONS
- − Maximum leverage of 20x is lower than competitors like Hyperliquid (40x) and GMX (50x) — not suitable for high-leverage seekers
- − TVL of approximately $22M is significantly lower than leading perpetuals DEXs (Hyperliquid: $4.8B, GMX: $500M+) — may limit depth and liquidity
- − Only USDC accepted as primary collateral — no multi-collateral support like some competing platforms
