About Antarctic
Antarctic is a perpetual futures exchange for large retail traders whose interface resembles a centralised venue while settlement happens on-chain: thirty-three markets cover crypto, gold, silver and oil plus US equities and ETFs, with stablecoin margin, no fees, leverage up to one hundred times on crypto and five hundred on gold.
It targets opaque custody and matching at centralised venues and the shortfall in speed, depth and professional tooling at purely on-chain perpetuals, adding an account revival scheme that converts half of a fourteen-day net loss into trading-only credit. Third-party verification on 24 September 2026 showed 358 million dollars of open interest, and equity and commodity contracts listed that month. Matching and balances sit on its own servers, withdrawals can pause for compliance review, and third-party trackers have flagged user reports of withdrawal delays.
Antarctic (AX) is a decentralized perpetual futures exchange on Arbitrum with non-custodial on-chain settlement. Key milestones include: testnet launch in November 2024, V1 mainnet release in February 2025, and an enhanced security version in March 2025, establishing its mainnet foundation. Technologically, the platform uses a ZK-proof matching engine, matching orders off-chain and posting proofs on-chain to ensure transparent and auditable rule execution, distinguishing it from most similar protocols. In 2025, it completed a $7 million funding round at a $70 million valuation, with investors including Valisa Capital Markets, Lucidity Capital, and Republic Crypto; the founding team includes former executives from OKX, Binance, and MEXC, providing capital and industry experience for long-term growth. Additionally, the native token ATTX plans to allocate 52.4% of supply to the community, with a points-based pre-mining system in place ahead of its TGE, signaling long-term governance and incentive structuring.
Antarctic closed a $7M raise at a $70M valuation on September 7, 2026 with Valisa Capital Markets, Lucidity Capital and Republic Crypto, and went live on mainnet the same period, launching its AX Points campaign.
On Arbitrum, Antarctic offers zero-gas, low-fee perpetuals trading with zkRollup settlement, up to 100x leverage on BTC / ETH and 500x on gold, across 33 markets including gold, oil and U.S. equities.
Antarctic's forward strategy scales perpetual and RWA trading through a self-custodial UX and hybrid liquidity, converting AX Points into the future AX token to deepen trader and liquidity incentives.

The founding team is made up of former executives from OKX, Binance and MEXC; the company raised a $7M private round in 2026 at a $70M valuation.
Antarctic divides its perpetual contract fees into six tiers, VIP 0 through VIP 5, by 14-day trading volume, with the VIP 0 tier charging a 0.0500% taker fee and a 0.0200% maker fee.
Antarctic lowers its rates tier by tier as 14-day trading volume rises, with the VIP 5 tier (500,000,000 USDT in 14-day volume) reducing the taker fee to 0.0200% and the maker fee to 0.0000%.
