How SilkDEX and Orderly Network fit together
Orderly Network is perpetuals infrastructure: one central limit order book shared by many trading front ends (brokers), with matching, risk and on-chain settlement. SilkDEX is one of those brokers — broker ID “silkx”, shown as SilkX in Orderly's broker registry. Orders placed on SilkDEX match in the same book as orders from other Orderly front ends, deposits go into Orderly's vault contracts on the chain you deposit from, and SilkDEX never holds funds or private keys.

Risk
Perpetual futures are high-risk leveraged derivatives; you can lose all of your margin. Stock, index, commodity and FX perps track prices only — you don't own the underlying asset. Smart contracts and price oracles can fail. Nothing here is financial advice.
