MYX — you know that eerie silence right before the storm breaks? This is that moment.
MYX just closed a strategic funding round led by Consensys (the team behind MetaMask + core Ethereum tooling), with Consensys Mesh and Systemic Ventures joining in. The kicker: with this round, Consensys becomes MYX’s largest investor — not a “spray and pray” check, but a serious alignment.
And they’re not funding noise — they’re funding a pivot.
Instead of being “just another perps venue,” MYX is rolling into MYX V2 with a clear mission: become a Modular Derivative Settlement Engine — basically the clearing + settlement layer that other apps and chains can plug into for omnichain derivatives. Think “picks and shovels” for the next wave of on-chain leverage.
What makes V2 feel like a real upgrade (not a marketing refresh):
• Account abstraction / gasless-style UX to reduce friction for traders
• Permissionless oracles to keep the system decentralized while scaling markets 
• A path toward a professional-grade execution + risk stack, where perps feel smoother without giving up on-chain sovereignty 
Also worth noting: MYX didn’t disclose the raise amount publicly — which usually means the headline isn’t the number… it’s who showed up and what they’re building next.
Translation: the market loves shiny tokens… but big money quietly backs infrastructure.
MYX just got the kind of backing that tends to show up before the real move.
