Pacifica

Pacifica is a decentralized perpetual exchange built on Solana, running an on-chain central limit orderbook across roughly 20 markets with up to 50x leverage. It offers cross and isolated margin and runs a points program ahead of any token.

Pacifica fees

Pacifica charges about 0.75 bps maker and 2 bps taker (a basis point is 0.01%). As with any perp venue, the funding rate often matters more than the headline fee: it is a recurring payment between longs and shorts that can quietly run for or against your position.

Pacifica leverage & markets

Pacifica offers up to 50x leverage across crypto markets on Solana. Higher leverage magnifies both gains and liquidation risk, so size positions carefully. For the most aggressive limits, see the highest-leverage perp DEX ranking.

Is Pacifica safe and is there KYC?

Pacifica is non-custodial: your funds stay in your own wallet and you sign each trade, so there is no company holding your balance and typically no KYC. The trade-off is smart-contract and liquidation risk, so prefer venues with a solid track record and verify contracts yourself.
