Charles d’Haussy is CEO of the dYdX Foundation.
In this episode, d’Haussy discusses the launch of dYdX v4 and the potential tailwinds that could help decentralized derivatives gain market share in the coming years.
According to d’Haussy, the decision to launch dYdX v4 as a standalone appchain in the Cosmos ecosystem was made to optimize the experience for dYdX users.
“If you need to upgrade to a new (technology) stack, you need to be agnostic and only think about the users, experiences and potential of the market you are currently working in.”
