For years, DeFi forced traders to choose: decentralization or performance. Rarely both

That’s why @reya_xyz stands out to me.

It’s engineered around a simple idea you shouldn’t have to sacrifice speed to stay onchain. Modular design keeps Ethereum-level security intact while delivering execution that feels closer to centralized venues: faster fills, tighter slippage, and liquidity that doesn’t fall apart under pressure

What’s telling is the target audience.
This isn’t built only for DeFi natives who tolerate friction.
It’s clearly designed for traders coming from traditional markets who expect speed and reliability by default

Reya feels like a step toward DeFi competing on equal footing not as an experiment, but as a serious trading venue
