The future of trading is mobile, self-custodial, and on-chain. And now, it’s also powered by dYdX.

Crypto.com has integrated dYdX’s trading infrastructure into its Onchain App, unlocking advanced trading features for users directly within the mobile experience. This is a big win for traders, but also a powerful signal for the next phase of DeFi adoption.

So why did one of the largest crypto platforms in the world choose dYdX?

Key reasons are as follows:

1. Derivatives Matter and So Does UX

Derivatives, especially perpetuals, account for the majority of crypto trading volume. But offering that kind of advanced functionality onchain, and making it feel as seamless as any centralized product, is no small feat.

Crypto.com needed a partner who could deliver institutional-grade performance in a fully decentralized environment. dYdX was the natural fit.

By integrating dYdX’s infrastructure, Crypto.com now offers fast, liquid, and advanced trading within its self-custodial mobile app, without users ever leaving the experience.

2. Proven Infrastructure, Ready to Scale

dYdX has processed over $1.49 trillion in trading volume to date, and is designed to scale across mobile, desktop, and API use cases.

What makes this integration exciting is not just the feature set, it’s the infrastructure behind it. Crypto.com can tap into a battle-tested, high-performance engine, while maintaining full control of the user interface and experience.

It’s plug-and-play for serious onchain trading.

3. A Shared Vision for Self-Custody and Performance

This integration reflects a growing trend: platforms want to offer powerful trading without compromising on decentralization or user control.

Crypto.com’s Onchain App is already a leader in the self-custodial space. By integrating dYdX, they’ve extended that value into one of the most in-demand areas of crypto, derivative markets.

It’s a win for Crypto.com’s users, and a model for how trading can work in a self-custodial future.

4. The Bigger Picture for Partners

If you’re building a wallet, app, or DeFi interface, this partnership opens the door to something bigger: the ability to integrate world-class trading into your product with minimal lift.

dYdX provides the infrastructure. You own the experience.

Whether it’s through custom frontends, mobile integrations, or API-based access, the goal is simple: bring advanced trading to more users, wherever they are.

Final Thoughts

Crypto.com and dYdX are setting a precedent: that advanced trading doesn’t have to be siloed in centralized platforms. It can be mobile, on-chain, self-custodial, and feel just as good.
