Recently, I deposited 500 USDC on a certain trading aggregation tool for volume testing. After reaching a trading volume of 10,000 USDC, I found that the slippage cost was about 20 USDC. I observed that the project team has recently launched some optimization updates, and the slippage rate should improve in the future. The recent testing of the SOL/USDC trading pair's slippage performance has been quite acceptable.

However, from an ecosystem perspective, I believe that trading aggregators and perpetual DEXs are two completely different tracks. Perpetual DEX platforms like Perpdex are indeed shaking the foundations of centralized exchanges and changing the landscape of derivatives trading. In comparison, aggregation trading tools mainly optimize trading experiences by integrating liquidity, acting more as a complement to existing markets.

Those who compare aggregator platforms to tools like gmgn are actually underestimating the functional differences and market potential of the two.

The 20% wear rate is indeed a bit painful, but if it can be optimized in the future, it's still acceptable. Perpetual DEX and aggregators are really not in the same league. It's a bit strange why some people insist on discussing them together. SOL's slippage is okay, mainly because the liquidity is deep enough, unlike some new tokens that get easily broken through.

A 20 basis point wear and tear fee is acceptable, mainly depends on subsequent optimization Perpetual DEX is truly on another level, the aggregator is just a tool Some people even compare this to gmgn, I really can't keep up As long as the slippage is acceptable, don't fuss too much The mechanism of perpetual is indeed impressive, the aggregator can't compare

The 20 USDC slippage fee is acceptable, but I'm worried that future optimizations will just be PPT promises. Honestly, these types of aggregation tools have been hyped up too much. Perpetual DEX is the real game-changer. gmgn benchmarking against aggregators? What are you thinking, friend? They are completely two different things. Actually, before testing SOL slippage, other trading pairs should have been tried earlier. The sample size is too small. That 20% slippage rate... still feels a bit painful. It's just a liquidity intermediary, yet it's been mythologized.

The 20 yuan wear and tear fee isn't much, but it does indicate that there is still room for optimization. However, it depends on how the subsequent updates turn out; the aggregator is still very competitive right now. Perpetual DEX and aggregators are indeed not the same thing. One changes the landscape, and the other improves the experience; their roles are completely different. Those who often make comparisons haven't thought it through. It's already good if the SOL slippage is acceptable; some trading pairs have really extreme slippage.
