How these are rankedShowHide
Rule. Every listing in dYdX’s own category (Trading Tool) that carries a Sato Score, ordered by score tier, observed liveness, deploy-spec and reproduced-install evidence, and chain overlap with dYdX.
This page ranks peers on how open, active and verifiable each one is — the same evidence Sato Hub publishes everywhere else. It is not a quality, safety or performance ranking, it declares no winner, and it cannot tell you which of these fits your codebase. A Sato Score is not an audit: none of these has been security-reviewed by Sato Hub, and a listing with no earned verification is self-reported.

“Differs on” is derived from the records — type, chains, openness and deployment — and states a difference, never a preference. ✓ marks an earned state named as what was checked; none of them is a safety claim.

Questions about alternatives to dYdX
- What are the alternatives to dYdX?
- Drift Protocol, Hyperliquid, GMX, Raydium, Jupiter, Uniswap, Orca, CloddsBot, 1inch, CSPR.trade MCP are listed in the same category as dYdX (Trading Tool), as of 2026-10-28. The order is Sato Score and observed evidence, not a quality judgment.
- Which alternatives to dYdX are open source?
- 6 of 10: Drift Protocol, Raydium, Uniswap, Orca, CloddsBot, CSPR.trade MCP. Openness is read from each project's own published license or repository.
- Which alternatives run on the same chains as dYdX?
- None of the listed alternatives declares a chain in common with dYdX.
- Has Sato Hub verified any of these?
- Sato Hub reproduced the documented install for 6 of them: Drift Protocol, Hyperliquid, Raydium, Jupiter, CloddsBot, CSPR.trade MCP. Reproducing an install means the documented setup was actually run — it is not a security review, and Sato Hub holds no security assessment of any of these.
- How is this list of alternatives built?
- It is a rule over live records, not a hand-written list: every listing in dYdX's own category that carries a Sato Score, ordered by the same evidence the rest of the site ranks on — Sato Score tier, whether an endpoint answered our probe, whether a deploy spec exists and was reproduced, a sustained observed record, and chain overlap with dYdX. It is rebuilt from the records, so it changes when they do.
