Read the docsWHAT ARE DERPS?
DERPs are synthetic, digital assets that enable leveraged trading on any financial asset, from stocks to real-estate funds to memecoins — all fully on-chain.
How DERPs Work
- 1
Unlike traditional perpetual futures that use order books, DERPs use Automated Market Makers (AMM)
- 2
This enables instant order filling, even for assets with low liquidity
- 3
Trade with leverage to amplify your gains based on your conviction
- 4
All you need is a Solana wallet to start trading
What Makes DERPs Different
No Order Book Required
Traditional perpetual futures need deep liquidity and active market makers. DERPs use AMM technology to provide instant liquidity for any asset.
Fully On-Chain
Every trade is executed on the Solana blockchain, ensuring transparency, security, and eliminating counterparty risk.
Universal Asset Coverage
If there's an on-chain price feed available, it can be traded as a DERP — from memecoins to traditional stocks and ETFs.
KEY FEATURES
derp.trade brings sophisticated trading tools to any on-chain asset, revolutionizing how you interact with the crypto market.
Long & Short Any Asset
Amplify your convictions with leverage or bet against overvalued assets. DERPs give you the flexibility to profit in any market direction.
TradFi On-Chain
Access traditional financial assets like stocks, commodities, and ETFs directly on-chain in a fully decentralized way, without intermediaries.
Rug-Pull Prevention
Token creators can hold longs instead of team tokens they would otherwise have to sell to the community, reducing sell pressure.

Unlike traditional perpetual futures that rely on order books and require deep liquidity, DERPs use Automated Market Makers (AMM) to provide instant liquidity and order execution, making them viable for any asset regardless of trading volume.
