GMX, the leading permissionless onchain perpetual exchange, today <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/GMX_IO/status/1972624825232334948">announces the launch of GMX Multichain</a> with an expansion to Base, Coinbase’s Ethereum Layer 2 network. This milestone expands GMX’s reach to over 1.3 million Base users, enabling seamless cross-chain access to its deep-liquidity Perp and Swap markets.

With this launch, GMX has taken a major step on its path to provide permissionless, high-performance perpetual trading across every major public blockchain.
“Multichain is GMX’s answer to scaling a successful Perp DEX without compromising on DeFi’s core values…” explains Jone Zee, Communications Coordinator at GMX. “Horizontal expansion; rapidly increasing the total addressable market. By launching first on Base, we’re opening the door to one of the fastest-growing ecosystems in crypto — meanwhile, setting the stage to unlock many more chains in the months ahead.”
<h2 id="what-multichain-enables">What Multichain Enables</h2>
●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Seamless trading of GMX’s 90+ perpetuals and 23 high-liquidity swap markets directly from other EVM blockchains, starting with Base. Enjoy trade execution in under 1 second across chains, with network costs and RPC dependencies abstracted away thanks to the innovative GMX Express functionality.
●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Frictionless onboarding (in under 30 seconds), with no manual bridging or complex setup for the end user. Connect your wallet, deposit collateral, and trade.
●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Unified liquidity across all the public blockchains unlocked by Multichain, built on top of&nbsp;LayerZero’s battle-tested infrastructure that has supported 150M messages and $120B in volume.&nbsp;
●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liquidity provision (coming soon): users from BASE and other EVM chains will be able to earn yield by providing liquidity directly to GMX’s <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://dune.com/gmx-io/v2-lp-dashboard">high-performance</a> GM pools and GLV vaults.
Since its inception four years ago, GMX has facilitated over $320 billion in trading volume from more than 720,000 users across Arbitrum, Avalanche, Solana, and the Bitcoin-based Botanix blockchain. With Multichain now live, these numbers are expected to accelerate as GMX continues its rapid horizontal expansion.
<h2 id="what-s-next">What’s Next</h2>
Following Base, GMX will progressively unlock access from many more popular, public EVM blockchains, including Binance Chain, Berachain, Ethereum Mainnet, Sonic, Linea, ApeChain, and more — positioning itself as the go-to permissionless Perp trading platform for users of all decentralised blockchains.
“This is really just the beginning,” added Jone Zee. “With Multichain, GMX is building the most accessible decentralised exchange infrastructure for DeFi users everywhere. People are used to thinking of GMX as the old-school, pioneer Perp DEX on Arbitrum. Soon they’ll understand that what GMX really stands for is: Trade Anywhere, Onchain. Seamlessly, Permissionlessly.”
