Avantis Is Now Veranta: The Next Chapter in Global Onchain Markets

Avantis is becoming Veranta.

The change reflects how much the exchange has evolved since launch, and where we are going next.

Avantis began with a simple thesis: leverage should not stop at crypto. Traders should be able to express views on currencies, commodities, equities and other global markets using the same onchain infrastructure.

Since launch, nearly $100 billion in volume has moved through the platform across more than 100,000 users.

Veranta is the next chapter.

We are expanding beyond perpetuals into a broader onchain trading venue for global markets, with more assets, more instruments, deeper liquidity and infrastructure built for both traders and agents.

Today, Veranta already supports more than 100 real-world markets, with a roadmap to reach 500+ RWAs and expand into new derivatives including leveraged tokens and options.

Our cheetah mascot, Vanta, remains part of the identity and carries forward into this next era.

And as of today, Veranta is open to everyone. Absolutely no invite code required!

What Has Changed

The new Veranta experience brings several major upgrades.

Zero-Commission RWA Trading

Real-world asset markets now trade with zero maker and taker commission, alongside 24/5 access.

That gives traders more flexibility around earnings, macro releases and overnight market moves without being limited to traditional market hours.

More Liquidity Across Global Markets

Liquidity has expanded significantly across the platform, particularly across equities, FX, metals and other real-world markets where execution quality matters most at size.

Upside Perps

Zero-Fee Perps have evolved into Upside Perps.

The product keeps the same asymmetric structure, allowing traders to avoid upfront trading fees and instead pay from profitable outcomes, while expanding support across more crypto assets and leverage profiles.

More Advanced Trading Tools

Veranta now gives traders greater control over execution and position management through:

• Partial take-profit and stop-loss orders
• TWAP orders
• Scale orders
• Improved position management

Infrastructure Built for Agents

The Veranta SDK has been rebuilt with agentic trading in mind.

As more execution moves toward automated strategies and AI agents, Veranta is building the liquidity and infrastructure layer those systems can plug into.

Easier Funding

Users can also fund their trading experience through Apple Pay and Google Pay, reducing the number of steps required to get started.

What We Learned During Private Beta

Veranta's private beta began on August 12.

Since then:

• More than $1 billion in trading volume
• More than 100,000 trades
• More than $200,000 in revenue
• Open interest increased roughly 3x, from $10 million to approximately $30 million

The private beta gave us the opportunity to test the new infrastructure with existing traders before opening access more broadly.

That period is now over.

Veranta is now open to everyone.

What Comes Next

Through the end of the year, our priorities include expanding toward 500+ real-world asset markets, increasing available RWA liquidity toward $500 million+, introducing new tooling for agentic trading, and expanding beyond perpetuals into additional derivatives including options.

The long-term goal is simple: if there is a global market worth trading, we want traders to be able to access it onchain.

Avantis proved the original thesis.

Veranta is where we take it further.

Trade the untradeable.
