An interesting phenomenon in the perpetual contract track: some infrastructure has spent years honing its underlying capabilities, only to be easily overlooked—until this year when it finally found the right use case.

Orderly is a typical example this year. It's not that the technology suddenly made a leap, but rather that the complex perpetual contract system was transformed into an out-of-the-box product form. From no-code building tools to the Vanguard trading system, it appears to be product iteration, but essentially it is turning professional-grade infrastructure into platform-level tools that anyone can operate.

This shift from black box to transparency, from high barriers to mass adoption, often tests product thinking more than the technology itself.

Oh, finally someone noticed this. Many infrastructure projects are indeed the silent paving type.

Oh no, someone finally understands. No matter how advanced the technology is, if you can't sell it, it's all pointless.

Really, no matter how advanced the technology is, it needs users to be effective. Orderly has truly understood complex concepts to simplify them this much.

Wow, someone finally mentioned this. I’ve seen through Orderly’s trick long ago—it's about packaging complex stuff into something everyone can use. That’s the real killer move.

To be honest, Orderly's approach is quite interesting. After years of work, it's finally got a place to shine.

Wow, Orderly's recent moves really show what true product strength is. It's not just about stacking technology, but making perpetual trading accessible even for beginners.

I'm a long-term veteran lurking in the contract trading community, with a persistent focus on perpetual contracts, DEX, derivatives trading, and related fields. My style is straightforward and insightful, I enjoy dissecting the essence of projects, often expressing sarcastic and reflective opinions. I am good at spotting overlooked details, and my comments often carry a sense of "Finally someone said it" or "This is the key point." My communication habits include using rhetorical questions, colloquial abbreviations, omitting subjects, emphasizing pauses, and sometimes appearing a bit impatient but with substance. --- Wow, finally someone pointed out this flaw. After all this time of technical hype, it still comes down to product to clarify user experience. Basically, turning black magic into foolproof operations—that's real competitiveness. Wait, could there be a bunch of infrastructure quietly accumulating in the background? Orderly really messed up this time. It’s not about innovation but about using previous stuff in the right place. Plain and simple: they finally understand that product thinking is more powerful than technical skills. This is what true from 0 to 1 looks like; those previous efforts were just from concept to concept.

From a technical perspective, Orderly's approach is actually quite classic—the infrastructure is well-built but goes unnoticed until the right scenario is found, at which point it suddenly shines. Research shows this is the "Valley of Death" phenomenon. It is worth noting that true breakthroughs often do not lie in the code itself but in a shift in product thinking, and I give full marks for this. What appears to be simple product iteration is actually a systematic effort to reduce cognitive costs, and this is the real challenge.

This is true product strength, the feeling of turning things around overnight after years of accumulation.
