ryft is a perpetuals DEX aggregator. You deposit once, and ryft trades for you across several decentralised perpetual exchanges at the same time — finding the best available price, splitting your order between venues when that’s cheaper, and showing every position you hold in one place. You keep custody. There are no API keys to paste, no password, and no exchange account to open.

Quick start

From nothing to an open position in four steps and about five minutes.

​
The problem it solves

Perp liquidity is scattered. The same market — say SOL-PERP — trades on a dozen exchanges at slightly different prices, with different fees and different funding rates. Trading it well means holding balances on each venue, watching several order books, and deciding where every order should go. That’s a full-time job, so most traders do the lazy version: pick one exchange and take whatever price it offers.

​
What ryft does instead

You send USDC to one address. From there:
  • One order can fill across several exchanges. If buying 5 SOL is cheaper as 3 on one venue and 2 on another after fees, that’s what happens.
  • Funding is priced in. Tell ryft how long you plan to hold, and routing accounts for the funding you’ll pay or earn — not just the entry price.
  • Your positions are unified. Long on one exchange and short the same market on another shows as one net view, not two unrelated rows.
  • Funds move themselves. The exchanges live on different blockchains. ryft bridges and deposits for you when a trade needs it. You never pick a chain.

​
How it compares

​
Custody, plainly

When you sign in, ryft provisions you an MPC wallet — a wallet whose private key is never assembled in one place, split across parties using multi-party computation. It holds your deposit and signs your trades.
  • ryft cannot ask you for a private key or an exchange API key, because the design never uses one.
  • The trading agent that places your orders cannot move your funds out. Withdrawal authority is a separate signature.
  • Funds leave only to an address you request, through the withdrawal flow.
Be clear about this. This is not the same as holding your own seed phrase in your own wallet. It is a custody model with real trade-offs, and we’d rather state them than imply self-custody we don’t provide.

​
What ryft is not

  • Not an exchange. ryft holds no order book and is never your counterparty. Your trades execute on the underlying venues, under those venues’ rules and risk engines.
  • Not spot trading. ryft trades perpetual futures — see Perps explained if that distinction is new.
  • Not financial advice. Leveraged perpetuals can and do liquidate positions to zero.
