Built on Robinhood Chain
A perpetual futures exchange on the Ethereum L2 built for real-world assets.
On-Chain Order Book
Perps trade on Lighter’s order book, running natively on Robinhood Chain.
Self-Custody
Your keys, your funds. Trade without handing over custody.
Why Perpetra?
Perpetual futures belong on infrastructure built for finance. Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum Layer-2 built on the Arbitrum Orbit stack—purpose-built for tokenized real-world assets, with low fees, fast finality, and Ethereum-grade security. Perpetra brings a professional perps experience to it. Perpetra is a trading interface on top of two venues that already run on Robinhood Chain:- Perpetuals trade on Lighter, a zero-knowledge order-book exchange with an official Robinhood Chain deployment. Orders rest in a real central limit order book and fills are proven on-chain.
- Spot swaps on tokenized equities route through Rialto, which searches available on-chain liquidity and returns the best execution it can find.
Perpetra does not run its own matching engine or liquidity pool. Order matching, margin and liquidations are handled by the Lighter protocol; Perpetra provides the interface, market data and account tooling.
