Isolated margin breaks with the traditional model of collateralized pools by enabling traders to assign collateral to a specific trade rather than exposing those funds to price movements across several trades.


Charles d’Haussy, CEO of the dYdX Foundation, highlighted the benefits of segregating collateral and ensuring that each collateral pool has dedicated insurance. In a statement to Cointelegraph, the CEO explained, “Isolated margin introduces the option for traders to trade any market as an isolated position.” The executive continued:"Traders now have the ability to confine collateral to a specific position, and manually adjust their collateral for that given position. This enhancement creates more options for traders, safeguards the protocol’s stability, and allows the listing of over 800 new markets subject to governance.”


The protocol also announced the introduction of live price feeds from decentralized exchanges via the “Slinky” oracle and support for Raydium Markets, a Solana-based automated market maker.

Solana’s memecoin craze has ignited hundreds of thousands of new token listings over the last several months and spurred on a torrent of celebrity memecoins, both authentic and fake.


In May, Australian rapper Iggy Azalealaunched her own memecoin, MOTHER, following the fraudulent listing of the IGGY token — a project that had no connection to the rapper.


Playing off the launch of MOTHER, social media influencer Andrew Tate launched his own Solana-based memecoin, DADDY, spawning an online competition between the two meme tokens and even inspired apiece from digital artist Beeple.Beeple"s art piece depicting the DADDY and MOTHER memecoins.
