What is Extended?
Extended is a decentralized perpetuals exchange built on Starknet, offering 100+ markets spanning crypto, equities, FX, commodities, and indices, with leverage up to 100x. The platform implements a hybrid Central Limit Order Book (CLOB) model that processes orders and matches trades off-chain while settling transactions on-chain through Starknet’s zk-enabled infrastructure. An app-specific chain for decentralized sequencing is currently in development.
This architecture enables Extended to deliver high-performance trading with reduced gas fees while maintaining security through Starknet’s infrastructure. Their hybrid approach optimizes for both speed and cost-efficiency, addressing common pain points in DeFi trading.
Extended was built by a team with backgrounds at Revolut and has secured $19 million in funding from investors including Cyber Fund, Semantic Ventures, and StarkWare.
Extended Airdrop Details
The Extended airdrop is confirmed. The EXT token will reward active traders and successful referrers based on accumulated points. Extended has launched Season 1 of its Points Program with up to 1.2M points distributed weekly every Tuesday at 00:00 UTC.
Latest Update: eToro has led a $12.5 million strategic funding round in Extended, the onchain perpetual futures exchange built on Starknet, bringing the platform’s total funding to $19 million. Jump Crypto and Alber Blanc also joined the round, which closed on July 2, 2026.
Extended Points Program Season 1 Now Live
Extended has launched Season 1 of its Points Program on April 29, 2025, with up to 1.2M points available for weekly distributions every Tuesday at 00:00 UTC. Ahead of Season 1, 4.3M Early Participation points were distributed on February 26 and April 28, 2025. Follow these steps to participate:
- Visit the Extended app and connect your EVM or Starknet wallet
- Click on “Start Trading” and deposit USDC into the vault to receive Extended Vault Shares (XVS)
- You can buy USDC from Binance and deposit it into Extended
- Start trading on the perpetual market to earn trading points
Extended Vault Shares (XVS)
Whenever users deposit USDC into the vault, they receive Extended Vault Shares (XVS) in return. XVS contributes 90% of its value to both user Equity and Available Balance for Trading, allowing vault deposits to function as yield-bearing collateral for perpetual trading. XVS also continuously accrues both base and extra yield.

- Ethereum
- Arbitrum

Starknet wallet users can only deposit from and withdraw to Starknet.
Points Categories
Users can earn points across three categories:

The team reserves the right to update the allocation criteria and logic, including the addition of new factors, which can be revised on a weekly basis.
