Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The documented product focus is perpetual contracts, not a general-purpose exchange description.
  • API availability is cited, but API setup and operation details are not included.
  • The Cayman Islands reference identifies the incorporation jurisdiction of dYdX International Ltd; it does not establish where the service is available.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
