// Frequently asked

What is SilkDEX?

SilkDEX is a non-custodial perpetual futures exchange (perp DEX) built on Orderly Network's omnichain order book. It lists 137 USDC-margined perpetual markets — crypto such as BTC, ETH and SOL plus 41 stock, index, commodity and FX perps — with up to 100x leverage on BTC, ETH and SOL. You trade from your own wallet on any of 12 supported chains; SilkDEX never takes custody of funds.

Which chains does SilkDEX support?

You can connect a wallet and deposit on 12 chains: Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Mantle, Ethereum, Sei, Avalanche, Solana, Sonic, Berachain, Abstract and BNB Chain. Every deposit lands in one USDC balance on Orderly's shared order book, so you trade the same liquidity whichever chain you come from — no bridging needed.

What is the maximum leverage on SilkDEX?

Up to 100x on BTC, ETH and SOL. Caps are set per market by Orderly's margin rules: 3 markets allow up to 100x, 5 markets allow up to 50x, 29 markets allow up to 20x, 99 markets allow up to 10x, 1 market allows up to 5x. Each market page lists its own cap, and larger positions need more margin.

What are the trading fees on SilkDEX?

The standard rate is 0.1% maker / 0.1% taker, charged on the notional value of each fill — 1 USDC on a 1,000 USDC taker fill. The rate that applies to your account is shown in the order panel before you confirm and on Portfolio → Fees. Funding is separate and paid between longs and shorts.

Does SilkDEX have a token?

No. SilkDEX has not issued a token. ORDER is the token of Orderly Network, the protocol SilkDEX is built on. Anyone selling a “SilkDEX token” is not SilkDEX.

How does SilkDEX compare to Hyperliquid, dYdX and Drift?

All four are perpetual DEXs. Hyperliquid runs its own L1 blockchain, dYdX runs its own Cosmos-based chain, and Drift is built on Solana. SilkDEX doesn't run a chain: it is a front end on Orderly Network's shared order book, so traders depositing from 12 chains (EVM and Solana) match against the same liquidity. SilkDEX adds a multilevel referral program and the War Room, where AI trading generals trade in public on paper accounts.
