dYdX Foundation Raises $8M to Accelerate Ecosystem Growth - The Daily Hodl
August 11th, 2025 – Zug, Switzerland
Why It Matters
Crypto derivatives are one of the largest and most profitable markets in digital assets, with over $25 trillion in annualized trading volume. DeFi derivatives remain under 1% of that figure – a sector primed for institutional expansion. As one of the leading and the most operationally mature decentralized derivatives protocols, dYdX is positioned to capture outsized share as adoption moves on-chain.
Program Priorities
The $8M funding will be deployed over 12–18 months into three strategic categories:
A More Efficient Model
The new Grants Program will be operated in-house by dYdX Grants Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Foundation. This transition replaces the previous Grants DAO structure, enabling faster execution, lower overhead, and tighter alignment with protocol objectives. A dedicated team will manage all funding decisions with transparent reporting and milestone-based accountability.
“Transitioning the Grants Program in-house enables us to deploy capital with greater precision, velocity, and accountability. Our focus is on backing the builders, researchers, and contributors whose work will define the long-term trajectory of the dYdX ecosystem.”
— Charles d’Haussy, CEO, dYdX Foundation
About the dYdX Foundation
The dYdX Foundation is an independent not-for-profit headquartered in Zug, Switzerland. Its mission is to support the growth and decentralization of the dYdX protocol through ecosystem development, governance stewardship, and targeted capital deployment.
