dYdX Chain, a standalone Layer 1 platform based on Cosmos, has officially entered the beta-testing phase of its mainnet. This milestone follows a decisive governance vote, where over 99% supported the transition from post-trading to active trading.

Users can now actively trade on more than 33 perpetual markets on the dydx.trade platform, offering up to 20x leverage.
Full-scale trading with rewards for validators and stakers could commence after another DAO vote, provided the protocol is free from significant bugs or issues.

This launch represents a significant shift for dYdX, marking its transition from an L2 solution for Ethereum known as StarkEx to a self-sufficient L1 network.
