The perp DEX that’s going to dominate in the next months/years won’t be the one flashing the biggest numbers, we’ve already seen how easily those can be manipulated. It’ll be the one that gives traders what truly matters: a better experience, strong security, privacy, and above all, trust. People are tired of empty promises. They want a place that feels safe, fair, and actually built for them. And honestly, Paradex is one of the few exchanges proving it means business. When the black swan event hit on 10/10, chaos broke out everywhere. Traders got wrecked, markets went wild, and most exchanges (both CEX/DEXs) handled it terribly. Some refunded users in points, others ignored them completely. Paradex didn’t. They did exactly what needed to be done: Fix the issue → investigate → refund users ASAP I was one of the affected users. I lost money due to internal issues during the chaos. Shortly after, I contacted the team, they verified my case, and refunded me $200. Still, something didn’t feel right, so I asked them to double-check my account, and they found another $800 loss linked to the same issue. They refunded that too. No excuses or bullshit of any type. This is the kind of action that creates true loyalty. And that's precisely why I believe Paradex will stand out from all the competition. I use Paradex for the products and experience it offers, but above all because the team genuinely puts its users first, something a lot of other projects should take notes from.
