What it does

Avantis became Veranta in September 2026, after testing an expanded trading system in private beta. The current product combines RFQ and AMM liquidity, traditional-market exposure and tools such as partial take-profit, stop-loss, TWAP and scale orders.

Two pricing models need separating. RWA markets currently advertise zero commission during growth mode, while Upside Perps charges from profitable outcomes rather than an upfront trading fee. Neither removes spreads, holding costs or liquidation exposure. The name changed; existing users should still check the new contract and product rules.

Where it stands out

  • Traditional-market and crypto exposure share one venue.
  • Several execution tools support staged entries and position management.

Who’s behind it

The current documentation identifies the Veranta Foundation as the protocol creator, working with contracted developers and contributors. Its September announcement explicitly connects Veranta to the former Avantis product.
