A major perpetual and spot trading platform just made a significant move—they've opened up the code that powers every on-chain transaction. We're talking orders, cancellations, liquidations, the whole stack. After completing comprehensive audits on both their perpetual and spot circuits, they decided transparency wasn't just a buzzword but actual action.
The reason? Simple. Trust. When you can verify exactly what's happening under the hood for every operation, it changes the game. Users aren't just taking the platform's word for it anymore. The code is there. Audit it yourself. Check if liquidations are fair, if order execution is what they claim, if cancellations process correctly.
This kind of move forces the industry to raise its standards. It's not revolutionary—it's overdue. But in a space where trust is still being rebuilt, open-sourcing the mechanics that matter sends a clear signal: we've got nothing to hide.

So what if the code is open source? No matter how elegant the liquidation algorithm is written, it can't change my fate of being liquidated.

Wow, really? Finally, a platform dares to reveal the code, but how many people can actually be fooled by this move?
Open-source code is indeed attractive, but I'm worried it's just another marketing gimmick.
It's good that the liquidation mechanism is transparent, but the key is whether someone will actually review the code.
It sounds nice, but they probably only took it seriously after being afraid of being exposed.
If this move can be sustained, the industry will truly start to see price increases.
By the way, since the code is open source, maybe the bot trading can be optimized too...
This should have been done a long time ago. I really don't understand why they kept it hidden before.
It looks conscientious, but the slippage in the wallet says it all.

hypothesis: this is basically the ancient oracle problem but dressed up in solidity... bridging the gap between "trust me bro" and actual cryptographic proof. took them long enough tbh

Does anyone really review the code? Or is everyone just sharing this news
Trust is easy to talk about, but how many people actually look at the code
Open sourcing is a good thing, but it still feels like most people are blindly trading
Finally, someone dares to play like this, other platforms will have to follow suit
But to be fair, open source code does not necessarily mean safety; it also depends on who reviews it
Industry burnout starts like this haha
