Jared Grey, CEO of Sushi DAO, presented the platform’s ambitious goals for 2025, revealing that it will be a key year for its growth and expansion. Grey shared details about the new products set to launch next year, which are designed to enhance trading capabilities and Sushi’s presence across various ecosystems.
Set of New Tools for Sushi
One of the most notable developments is the creation of several products: Wara, Susa, Kubo, and Blade. Wara will be a derivatives exchange on the Solana blockchain, designed to offer a complete trading experience that will challenge competitors like Raydium and Orca. Susa, a perpetual DEX, will be built on the N1 network, optimizing on-chain order books to improve operational efficiency. Kubo, in turn, will be a tool to launch new markets through delta-neutral strategies, while Blade, an LVR AMM solution, will eliminate MEV risk in high-value assets, aiming to increase equity in trading.
Expanding the Ecosystem
Through these developments, Sushi DAO aims to expand its influence beyond its base in Ethereum and into ecosystems like Solana, seeking to establish its brand across various blockchain platforms. This is part of a strategy to franchise its products and extend its reach in the market, taking its trading services to new horizons.
2024 has also been a crucial year for the platform. Earlier this year, it implemented a comprehensive governance overhaul, which resulted in the creation of the Foundation and the Labs division, aimed at strengthening and promoting its multi-token ecosystem. These initiatives have been key to the launch of new products, including the Susa futures DEX.
Additionally, the DAO has proposed a strategy to diversify its treasury by liquidating all SUSHI tokens, which will allow the funds to be reallocated to more stable assets, such as stablecoins and prominent cryptocurrencies. Although this measure aims to reduce volatility and increase liquidity, it has sparked some controversy within the community due to perceived risks of centralization
