What is dYdX v4?​
The dYdX v4 protocol is all about decentralization. It’s an open-source platform designed to take the middleman out of trading. Everything runs through smart contracts, so there’s no central authority. Users can help shape and govern the platform, making it a trading space run by the community, for the community. This setup means more control for you and a trustless system where security is baked in.

Here’s what dYdX v4 brings to the table:
- Full Decentralization: The platform is entirely managed by smart contracts and community governance, with no single point of control.
