This week on Nexus 06.05.26 — This week on Nexus

This is the week the Exchange opens up. You can connect your wallet, get test credits from the faucet, and trade live across every market — with a full set of portfolio controls, deposits and withdrawals, and richer price data behind the scenes.

Connect your wallet and start trading

Trading is now live. The Trade, Portfolio, and Wallet tabs are open, and you can connect your wallet from anywhere it matters — the top navigation, the portfolio page, and the order entry panel. Once connected, the same identity carries across the whole app, so there’s no reconnecting as you move between placing orders and reviewing your positions.

To make it easy to start, a credit faucet hands you test USDX so you can place real orders against live markets right away.

Connect your wallet, claim faucet credits, and place a live order

A full portfolio view

Your portfolio now shows everything in one place: open orders, positions, and recent fills, each with the actions you’d expect. Cancel a resting order or close a position directly from the panel. A margin health indicator tells you at a glance how much room you have before your positions are at risk, so you can size and adjust with confidence.

Deposits and withdrawals

Moving funds in and out is built in. Deposits are picked up on-chain and credited to your account, and withdrawals now have a clear lifecycle you can follow from request through to settlement.

Withdrawals show your available balance with a Max button so you don’t have to do the math, and they warn you up front when open positions or orders would block the request — no failed attempts, no guesswork.

Build on the API

For programmatic traders, you can now create and manage API keys from the wallet page, with a dedicated card explaining how to get API access. Full API documentation is published and linked from the navigation, covering the endpoints you need to trade, manage funds, and read market data directly.

Built to stay fast under load

Opening to everyone only matters if the venue stays quick when it’s busy. A sustained-load stress run across many markets keeps order handling well inside its latency budget, even at the tail.

New and better price feeds

Market data got a meaningful upgrade. Prices for index markets now come from the Pyth Network oracle, a widely used source of high-quality market data, and we’ve expanded coverage with new markets. The MATIC market has been renamed to POL to match the token’s current name. The market selector is sortable and defaults to the most active markets, so the busiest venues are front and center.

A public Analytics page

There’s now a public Analytics page, so anyone can see how the Exchange is performing — activity and market data, out in the open. Verifiable execution is only as good as the transparency around it, and this is a step toward making the whole venue legible to anyone who wants to look.
