Perp DEXes on edgeX: live volume and TVL

edgeX is both a perp exchange and its own chain. The edgeX exchange matches orders off-chain and settles the results on its own rollup. The V2 architecture page says that this rollup uses the Arbitrum technology stack as a temporary framework and anchors its state to Ethereum. It is not Arbitrum One.

From StarkEx to its own rollup

edgeX V1 used a StarkEx validium on Ethereum. edgeX moved V1 funds to V2 from July 17 to August 14, 2026. V1 positions settled at the oracle price on August 14. The edgeX chain entry in PerpFinder refers to the V2 rollup.

The exchange on this chain

On September 23, 2026, the V2 market data API listed 179 contracts. BTC and ETH allow up to 100x leverage, and most other contracts allow 20x or less. The base fees are 0.040% maker and 0.045% taker. The API settles funding every 4 hours. The EDGE token launched on March 31, 2026.

Off-chain matching versus on-chain order books

With off-chain matching, order fills happen fast and do not need an on-chain transaction for each match. The tradeoff is transparency. Traders cannot independently check the sequence of fills, so they must trust the operator.

The edgeX audits page names RigSec, SlowMist and PeckShield. These reports cover V1 and StarkEx code. No listed report covers the V2 rollup contracts. Check the audit coverage against the position sizes that you trade.
