1. Perps live on Vega - Blog & Media 💫
The first perpetual futures market (ETH/USDT PERP) was enacted on 19 November 2023 at 03:00 UTC. Users of the Vega network can now trade with leverage, unmatched capital efficiency and great UX on an ever-growing list of community-proposed and on-chain-voted markets!
Access perpetual futures markets on Vega via Console 🕹

4. Governance Updates - VNP-017 & VNP-19 🗳
There has been a significant uptick in governance approvals and forum discussions, FYI just highlighting a couple here 🤓 The 'Enable Volume Discount' program, which rewards users with lower trading fees based on trading volume, has been approved and voted through — Read the community discussions HERE. 🔖 Additionally, the number of validators on the Vega network has expanded from 14 to 15, as proposed in VNP-017, and it appears the community is poised to welcome the 16th Consensus validator soon 👀
As hoped and designed for, decentralisation is increasing as the network grows 🚀
