Solana co-founder Toly addressed the crypto community's reaction to his recent AI-driven project involving a perpetual decentralized exchange (DEX). Toly explained that he was experimenting with Claude, an AI from Anthropic, to generate prototype code for a DEX. His intention was to test the concept with surfpool, not to launch a new product. Toly expressed surprise at the community's reaction, noting that he inadvertently open-sourced a code base, sparking widespread interest. Toly encouraged others to explore the idea, suggesting the development of a perpetual contract DEX that integrates all functions into a single account's memory segment, complete with its own liquidity provider, risk, and matching engine. Alternatively, he proposed creating a routing coordinator to manage positions across multiple DEXs. Toly's comments reflect a desire to see innovation and competition in the perpetual contract space.
