RWAperp Launches AI-Executed Perpetuals Venue on OKX's X Layer with 19 Markets

RWAperp has launched its AI-executed perpetuals venue on OKX's X Layer, offering 19 markets spanning equities, indices, commodities, and crypto settled in USDG from a single account. The venue is the first to offer derivatives trading on X Layer, which hosts Aave and Uniswap and passed $100 million in DeFi total value locked in August.

The principal product departure of RWAperp is Agent mode, an AI layer that opens, manages, and closes positions from natural language instruction. Traders describe intent rather than operating an order ticket, and the agent handles sizing, entry, and position management against it.

Underneath both sits a composite multi-issuer oracle and a risk engine built specifically for equities rather than adapted from crypto. Equity markets close, gap overnight, halt on news, and undergo corporate actions, none of which crypto-native perpetuals infrastructure is designed to handle.
