Avantis

Avantis is the largest RWA perpetuals DEX in DeFi, built on and backed by Base. It enables users to trade both crypto and real-world assets (RWAs) such as FX, commodities, indices, and equities. Supported by Pantera and Coinbase, Avantis has grown into the leading DEX on Base by trading volume, offering institutional-grade products with up to 500x leverage in a fully transparent, permissionless environment.

The platform introduced zero-fee perpetuals (ZFP), a first-of-its-kind innovation where traders only pay fees on profitable trades. Avantis also pioneered leveraged RWAs on-chain, expanding DeFi’s reach into traditional asset classes. These innovations have fueled rapid adoption, driving over $20 billion in cumulative volume and more than $15 million in run-rate revenues since February 2024.
