GRVT
PROS
- + Negative maker fees across all nine tiers, from -0.0001% at Level 1 to -0.003% at Level 9 — makers earn rebates instead of paying to provide liquidity
- + Self-custodial with optional KYC — users can sign up with only an email and trade without identity verification while keeping full control of funds
- + Around 168 perpetual markets spanning crypto and real-world assets, including gold (XAU), oil (WTI), and equities like Tesla, with up to 50x leverage on BTC
CONS
- − Only USDT and USDC accepted as collateral — no BTC, ETH, or multi-collateral margin support
- − Spot and options markets are not yet live — the platform is perpetuals-only, and even gold and stock exposure is traded via perps
- − KYC is still required to claim the upcoming $GRVT airdrop tokens at TGE and to lift the 50,000 USDT/day bridge withdrawal limit
Extended
PROS
- + 110+ perpetual markets combining cryptocurrencies with TradFi assets (gold, oil, EUR/USD, S&P 500, Nasdaq) — rare among perp DEXes
- + Zero maker fees and just a 0.025% taker fee, with maker rebates up to 0.013% based on 30-day market share
- + Up to 100x leverage on major crypto pairs including BTC and ETH, among the highest on Starknet
CONS
- − Restricted in the US, UK, Canada, Russia and sanctioned countries (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria) — using a VPN to bypass violates the Terms of Use
- − TVL (~$137M) and liquidity remain lower than leading perp DEXes like Hyperliquid, meaning less depth for large positions
- − Starknet L2 has lower adoption than Ethereum L1 or Solana — fewer integrated dApps and wallets
