Cascade Exchange (N/A)

Cascade is a centralized neo-brokerage with support for U.S clients that combines Web3 trading advantages with a brokerage interface familiar to traditional traders.

The platform offers 24/7 accessibility, similar to a crypto exchange, while supporting direct USD deposits from bank accounts. This is made possible through integration with Bridge, a protocol developed by Stripe.

At the same time, Web3 users can access not only crypto assets but also U.S. equities and private assets without compromising their trading experience. Among the first perpetuals available on Cascade xyz perpetual markets are OpenAI, Stripe, Tesla, and BTC, with plans to introduce additional unique assets in the future.

🪙 Cascade token: As of January 2026, there’s no confirmation on whether the project is going to launch the native token or not. 

However, the recently launched pre-deposit campaign, “The Cascade First Wave,” suggests that at the end of the Cascade “Waves,” the app might introduce its own token and conduct a Cascade airdrop for participants of the event.

On January 7, 2026, the project gained massive attention from the crypto community, raising a $3M pre-deposit cap in just six seconds. This occurred despite access to the pre-deposit phase being limited to users with invite codes only. The start date of the second pre-deposit phase remains undisclosed.
