Thank you for your interest in MarginX!
Update on the MarginX Mainnet Launch
We’ve decided to put the launch of the MarginX v2 mainnet on hold for now. Previously, MarginX testnet and mainnet were launched to facilitate perpetuals trading. However, given the challenging market conditions and the crowded landscape of perpetual DEX platforms, we opted to pivot our strategy. This allows us to avoid competing in an overheated market, reduce operational costs (as MarginX is not VC-funded), and maintain flexibility for future opportunities.
The MarginX chain (FXCore) officially ceased operations on January 19, 2024. For more details, you can view the transaction logs.

Current Direction: Supporting the Pundi AI (Pundi AIFX or whatever the name is) Ecosystem
MarginX has not issued any tokens thus far (although a token launch similar to HyperLiquid might be considered in the future). Without the constraints of token holder obligations, we are taking an experimental and organic approach to building value. This allows us to focus entirely on contributing to the growth of the Pundi AI (Function X) ecosystem rather than adhering to timelines driven by external pressures.
Here are some of our recent contributions to the ecosystem:
-
MarginX Expands Horizons: Introducing Spot Trading to Empower Our Community (March 25, 2024)
-
Announcing the MarginX Token Factory: Create Your Own Tokens (September 10, 2024)
These initiatives demonstrate our commitment to fostering growth and innovation within the ecosystem.
Commitment Beyond MarginX
Personally, I’ve been invited to take on an advisory role at Pundi AI on a pro-bono basis, in building and expanding the Pundi AI ecosystem. Additionally, some of our developers are actively supporting Pundi AI in the background by contributing to product development.
For MarginX to flourish as a decentralized exchange (DEX) within the Pundi AI (Function X) ecosystem, the ecosystem itself must thrive first. That’s why we are dedicating our resources and efforts to growing the ecosystem as a whole, rather than shifting our focus to other protocols at this time.
We remain committed to this journey and look forward to working together to achieve these goals. Onwards!
