From the fastest Layer 2 blockchain to the foundation of global onchain markets, RISE introduces a new standard for orderbooks on the EVM. It is fully onchain and synchronously composable.
RISE is the fastest Ethereum Layer 2. Today, it announced a new plan with the launch of RISE MarketCore and RISEx. RISE wants to become the global home for onchain markets. These new platforms create a complete system for onchain trading. They change RISE from a fast execution layer into the main engine for global onchain markets. This growth is supported by the recent purchase of BSX Labs. BSX Labs gives important technology to RISE’s new global markets offering.
Traditional financial markets, like stocks and foreign exchange, all use orderbooks. Until now, this market setup did not work well with blockchain technology. Blockchains were too slow and complex. RISE’s speed improvements solve this problem. Now, orderbooks can work fully onchain for the first time. This new development allows deep liquidity, programmability, and composability that have never been possible in finance before.
RISE is using its fast Layer 2 to launch new orderbook tools and a perpetuals DEX. It turns its speed advantage into a programmable market structure. This is the main engine that powers global onchain trading. MarketCore is built on RISE’s ultra-low latency EVM. It provides an orderbook system with deep, shared liquidity. This lets anyone launch fully onchain spot and perpetual markets quickly and without permission. In the future, RISE plans to support other orderbook-based tools like options and prediction markets. MarketCore solves big problems by offering native orderbook tools, risk engines, and APIs directly at the base layer. Builders can connect to liquid orderbooks. Founders can list their tokens without permission. Asset issuers can launch their own markets or even entire exchanges.
RISEx is the main app in the RISE ecosystem. It is the first Integrated Perpetuals DEX where DeFi works together with CEX-grade perpetuals. RISEx is built on the EVM. It gives a top-quality trading experience with deep liquidity, tight spreads, and smooth execution. Every order, margin update, and settlement happens synchronously onchain. This provides both speed and composability while keeping full transparency for traders and market makers.
“RISE was never just about building a faster blockchain. It’s about enabling a new market structure for the internet,” said Sam Battenally, CEO of RISE. “With RISE MarketCore and RISEx, we’re turning the chain itself into the global home for onchain markets. It is a programmable foundation where liquidity, risk, and innovation come together onchain. This is the infrastructure global finance will be built on: composable, transparent, and unstoppable.”
RISE’s growth gives developers and institutions a programmable foundation for global market infrastructure.
Key capabilities include:
Native Orderbook Infrastructure: Shared, composable books for both spot and perpetuals markets
Programmable Instruments: SDKs and APIs for building custom products and market logic
High-Performance EVM: Millisecond-class latency and high throughput that ensure smooth execution
Flagship Exchange: RISEx helps start ecosystem liquidity and sets a new standard for onchain trading
RISEx enters its closed mainnet this quarter. Then, it will launch its public mainnet in early 2026. After that, RISE MarketCore will open for permissionless deployment of new spot and perps markets. The future roadmap includes expanding the Markets SDK to support options, structured products, and prediction markets. All of these will run natively on RISE’s shared orderbook infrastructure.
RISE is the Home for Global Markets. It is a high-performance Ethereum Layer 2 that powers programmable markets onchain. RISE is built for CEX-grade performance and full EVM composability. It lets builders, traders, and institutions easily create and connect to global orderbooks alongside a growing DeFi ecosystem. RISE is rebuilding the financial stack for a transparent, composable, and unstoppable onchain economy.
