Level Perps

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

Level Perps is published as a versioned release inside the Level Finance protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Level Perps is a Derivatives protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed across 2 chains, including Arbitrum, Binance. The codebase has been independently audited (3 reports on file).

Level Perps operates on 2 networks (Arbitrum, Binance), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 93% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Arbitrum, Binance-pool2, pool2), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Price discovery relies on 2 oracle providers (Chainlink, Pyth), which diversifies the data-feed surface but also expands the set of third parties users implicitly trust. 3 public audit reports are linked from DeFiLlama, which is on the higher end of transparency for the DeFi sector — most protocols of comparable TVL publish far fewer.
