Zygo Finance - Gasless PerpDEX

Zygo Finance - Gasless PerpDEX

Zygo Finance - native gasless perpetual DEX (PerpDEX) on Mitosis. With a strong focus on accessibility and composability, Zygo aims to rethink leverage trading by removing the hidden friction most users have come to expect.

Features:

  • Zero gas trading — Users can open and close leveraged positions without paying network fees, thanks to Zygo’s integration with Mitosis’ ecosystem-owned liquidity (EOL) model.
  • Vault-backed margin — Positions are collateralized through vaults, allowing pooled capital to support perpetual trading strategies.
  • No expiration — Unlike traditional options or futures, Zygo’s contracts never expire, enabling flexible entry and exit.
  • Social-first structure — A coming feature includes strategy sharing, where users can follow top-performing vaults or traders directly from the interface.

Real-World Example

Let’s say a trader wants to long ETH with 5× leverage. Instead of needing to deposit directly into a DEX or bridge assets, he allocates funds to a shared vault on Zygo. The vault routes capital through smart contracts, executes her position, and handles margin and liquidation logic — all without gas fees or complicated steps.

Trader earns yield on idle capital while maintaining her position. If the trade performs well, rewards are distributed automatically. If not, vault mechanisms minimize risk across the pool. It’s perpetual trading simplified, and automated behind the scenes.

New trader, wants to take a 3× long position on ETH.

  1. He browses available “Strategy Vaults” and selects one labeled “ETH Momentum 3×”.
  2. He deposits $200 USDC into the vault, which now has a total pool of $10,000.
  3. The vault opens a long perpetual position on ETH using Zygo’s backend.
  4. Over 7 days, ETH increases by 10%, and the leveraged position gains 30%.
  5. Trader's share of the profit ($60) is added to her vault balance, minus minimal performance fees.
  6. He exits the vault — gas-free — with $260 total.

All this happens without her ever manually entering a trade, paying a gas fee, or managing liquidations.

Market Context

In a world where trading perpetuals often requires navigating L2 bridges, paying gas, and understanding margin math, Zygo’s clean approach — gasless vaults + social copy trading — could appeal to both DeFi natives and retail onlookers.

It also enters the market as an Ethereum alternative, sidestepping MEV congestion, validator lag, and yield dilution. Zygo isn’t trying to out-engineer dYdX or GMX — it’s rethinking the entire experience from the ground up.


Zygo isn’t just another DeFi trading tool — it’s part of a broader shift toward fully on-chain, modular finance where execution costs are abstracted away from the user. By pairing with other Mitosis-native tools like Chromo (swaps), Clober (orderbook), Zygo offers seamless DeFi composition for advanced and casual users alike.

Zygo Finance isn’t just another PerpDEX — it’s a reimagined derivative layer where the user experience is invisible by design. No gas, no bridging, no contracts to roll. Just open a position and trade. With social trading vaults and cross-protocol integrations ahead, Zygo is quietly building what could become the most intuitive derivatives platform in DeFi.
