Experience the Spirit of Hong Kong Academy: Exploration Day Set for 28 March

ROAD TOWN, British Virgin Islands, July 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AFX, a high-performance sovereign L1 purpose-built for decentralized derivatives, today announced a landmark operational milestone: surpassing $1.1 billion in cumulative trading volume during its initial period of operation. This rapid ascent is supported by over 8.6 million total trades, positioning AFX as one of the fastest-growing decentralized derivatives platforms in the 2026 Web3 landscape.

The most distinctive feature of AFX's growth is its superior capital efficiency. While many decentralized protocols rely on massive Total Value Locked (TVL) to attract volume, AFX has achieved its $1.1 billion milestone with a lean TVL of approximately $23.4 million.This exceptionally high volume-to-TVL ratio underscores the platform's advanced liquidity architecture and its appeal to professional high-frequency traders who demand deep order books and sub-100ms execution without the friction of legacy DeFi systems.

"Reaching $1.1 billion in volume so quickly validates our vision of a high-velocity, community-centric financial infrastructure," said Ken C, Head of Growth at AFX. "AFX is not just another DEX; it is a demonstration of how institutional-grade liquidity can thrive in a fully decentralized, sovereign environment. By allocating 65% of the token supply to the community, we are ensuring that the value generated by this high-performance engine is returned to the builders and traders who power it."

Currently, AFX is in the midst of its Season 1 Rewards program, featuring a 475,000 weekly points pool to incentivize liquidity providers and guild participants. The platform's LP Vaults (ALP) continue to deliver robust performance, offering an approximately 11% APY derived directly from actual protocol fees. As AFX continues to scale its 39 listed markets, including crypto leaders and synthetic TradFi assets, the protocol remains committed to bridging the gap between centralized performance and decentralized sovereignty.
