Big news just dropped: dYdX rolled out spot trading on Solana and, for the first time, opened doors to US traders. This is kind of a wild pivot when you think about it—the platform's been all-in on derivatives until now. Launching spot markets while tapping into the US crowd? That's not just a feature update, that's a whole strategic reboot. Wonder how this plays out for their positioning against other majors.

From derivatives to spot trading, from overseas to the U.S. mainland... Isn't this also a kind of "archaeological layering" in the project's evolution? The seemingly aggressive shift, upon closer reflection, is also a re-affirmation of the project's core values.

This move is aimed at directly competing with CEX, and the attractiveness of the US market is indeed significant.

Really? dYdX is now also going to spot trading... Is the US market's attractiveness that strong?

dYdX, this move was pretty good. They've finally bowed to the U.S. market. It seems that the competition in derivatives is really intense.

Spot trading? Now that's what dYdX should be doing.
