TRADE PERPS AND GET REWARDED
Adrena, a popular Solana Perps DEX, has just released its limit orders.
When trading on Adrena, you can now easily set your entry and exit orders like on a CEX, automate your trades, and never miss a move again.
Say goodbye to chasing pumps or manually closing positions at 3 AM.
Why Trade on Adrena?
Precision & Automation - With limit orders, you can set your trades at exact prices and enjoy automation, so you can step back and let the market work for you

Season 1 of Adrena’s gamified trading competition is also in full swing.
It’s already week 4, but it’s still not too late to climb on its leaderboard and secure a share of the 5M $ADX and 50k $JTO incentives.

How to track the activity of Ethereum L2s🛠️
A less-known crypto tool that I use regularly is growthepie.xyz.
You can see it as an all-in-one on-chain analytics platform built specifically for providing up-to-date metrics on Ethereum L2s.
Using it, you can:
check the aggregated metrics across all tracked L2s (e.g. the total number of daily transactions or daily users over time)
check what are the fastest-growing L2s by a wide range of metrics (TVL, stablecoin market cap, daily users, revenue, etc.)
see the most used dApps on any Ethereum L2
… and much more
I highly recommend using it if you want to analyze key L2 trends.
