What Is Liquid?

Liquid is a perpetual futures trading aggregator built on top of decentralized perpetual futures exchanges, giving traders access to over 500 markets spanning crypto, equities, pre-IPO companies, commodities, FX, and predictions through a single, streamlined interface.

Liquid is backed by Paradigm and other leading VCs and designed for traders who need speed, depth, and range across asset classes. It combines third-party decentralized exchanges’ on-chain Central Limit Order Book (CLOB) with a front-end experience purpose-built for active, fast-moving markets.

Why Trade via Ledger Wallet™ on Liquid?

The faster the market moves, the more a compromised wallet costs you. Software wallets and browser extensions are always connected to the internet. That persistent exposure is a weak link on every trade. Ledger Wallet™ direct access closes it.

Your keys stay offline. 

Your private keys never leave your Ledger signer, regardless of what is happening on-screen or on-chain. Every trade you initiate on Liquid is signed in a secure, isolated environment.

Clear Signing on every transaction.

Blind signing is one of the most common causes of loss in DeFi and on-chain trading. With Clear Signing, transaction details appear in human-readable language on your Ledger signer’s Secure Screen before you approve anything. What you see is what you sign.

Transaction Check as a second layer. 

Transaction Check simulates the outcome of a transaction before you sign, and can flag known malicious contracts or unexpected behavior.

No middleware, no extensions. 

Direct access to Ledger Wallet™ removes the need for a browser-extension wallet between you and Liquid Connect directly from Ledger Wallet™ to Liquid in a single click.

Built for EVM at launch. 

Direct access on Liquid is available on desktop via Chrome, Brave, and Chromium-based browsers, across Ethereum, Base, and other supported EVM-compatible chains. All Ledger signers are supported except the original Ledger Nano S™.
