Quest Overview
0%
Ekiden pairs a request-for-quote engine with a full central limit order book, giving traders both deep continuous liquidity and clean execution for larger size -- the kind of hybrid architecture usually reserved for institutional venues.
It is built on Canton Network, a chain purpose-built for regulated institutional finance rather than a generic retail EVM chain, and after months of testnet trading from thousands of users its mainnet is officially live -- early access is open now, ahead of the wider rollout.

About Ekiden
⚡
The best of two execution models
Ekiden pairs a request-for-quote engine with a full central limit order book in one venue -- deep, continuous liquidity for everyday trades, and clean RFQ execution for size that would otherwise move a thin book.
🏛️
Built on institutional-grade infrastructure
Ekiden runs on Canton Network, a chain purpose-built for regulated institutional finance rather than a generic retail EVM chain -- a serious foundation most DeFi perps venues do not have.
🚀
Mainnet is live, right now
After months of building and thousands of traders putting Ekiden through its paces on testnet, the team has officially launched on Canton Mainnet -- the venue is live and open for trading today.
🌱
Early access, right as the doors open
Mainnet access is currently prioritised for the top testnet traders, but registration is open to everyone right now -- getting in today puts you ahead of the wider rollout, with Quests, a Leaderboard and ongoing trading Competitions to climb from day one.
