Hi Team, Community Members, and Traders!
I hope this message finds you all well. First off, I’d like to congratulate the team on pushing through with our latest upgrade—the CLOB model—and successfully launching on Base. Keep up the fantastic work! I’m optimistic that this new launch will drive significant volume and growth for us.
I’m writing this post to gather feedback from the community regarding a potential name change. Since the decision to adopt the current name was made internally by the team, I thought it would be worthwhile to open up the discussion, especially as we’re in the early stages of this new rollout. Now seems like the perfect time to revisit this topic.
Personally, I’m not a fan of the name “Desk.” It doesn’t effectively communicate what we do or highlight our strengths—speed, affordability, or cutting-edge technology. Without proposing a completely new name, I’d like to suggest a slight modification: “Perp Desk". Adding “Perp” helps define our focus (perpetuals) and creates a catchy, memorable name that evokes the image of a high-volume trading desk.
This change is minimal and wouldn’t require significant adjustments, but I believe it could make a big difference in how we’re perceived. What are your thoughts? I’d love to hear your feedback!
Looking forward to your input.
Whipper
