Introduction

A high-level overview of the Paradex Chain

What is the Paradex Chain?

Chain Powered by Starknet

Enabling developers to build and deploy high-performance decentralized applications on CairoVM

Access to Liquidity Infrastructure

Seamlessly interact with the deep liquidity on the Paradex Exchange

Technical Architecture

The CairoVM is a specialized virtual machine designed specifically for Validity Proof systems (ZK-Rollups), and is free from the constraints of EVM-based architectures. Smart contracts are written in Cairo, a Rust-like language designed to maximize the efficiency of STARK-proof-based computation for scaling Ethereum.

Starknet applications can be easily deployed on the Paradex Chain

Full Starknet Compatibility

Deploy the same contracts by just updating RPC endpoints

Simplified Deployment

No protocol-level changes required

Mature Tooling

Use all existing Starknet ecosystem tooling including Hardhat, Starkli etc.
