Key Features of Vertex

Vertex Edge: Speed & Liquidity Redefined
Vertex Edge forms the backbone of Vertex, seamlessly fusing the power of a high-performance matching engine with the revolutionary capability of unified cross-chain liquidity within a single orderbook.
The flagship feature of Vertex, Edge provides synchronized perpetual liquidity across multiple chains, empowering traders to eliminate liquidity fragmentation and access the best trade execution and deepest liquidity with precision.
Users can tap into a synchronous orderbook network that shares perpetuals liquidity currently spanning 5 chains, including:
Arbitrum
Vertex achieves centralized exchange (CEX)-level performance while preserving the benefits of decentralized on-chain settlement. Trades are processed instantly, minimizing slippage and optimizing execution speed with latency times as low as 5-15 milliseconds. Whether you're a high-frequency trader or a DeFi enthusiast, Vertex Edge delivers unmatched efficiency and control.
Edge simply extends the orderbook layer to multiple chains, moving order matching and settlement from one chain to many – it’s a network of synchronous orderbook exchanges.
Hybrid Orderbook-Based Trading
Vertex leverages a lightning-fast off-chain orderbook sequencer paired with an on-chain risk engine and AMM deployed to each chain supported by Edge. The sequencer simply matches orders before settling them on-chain, regularly clocking in at blazing-fast latency times of 5 - 15 milliseconds – comparable with most CEXs.
Orderbooks provide a neutral exchange venue with transparent pricing and deep liquidity, minimizing slippage and enabling precise execution for trades of all sizes.
