Sai

Sai launched its mainnet on February 18, 2026 with 25 perpetual markets including BTC, ETH and SOL, using gasless trading and oracle-based settlement. The same day it started its first trading competition, "Let's Go Saicho", with a $25,000 prize pool; the event ran until March 19 and prizes were paid out in two transactions on March 27. Gasless trading from the Q1 2026 roadmap has shipped, with Sai Savings (yield on idle collateral) and multi-chain deposits listed as the next releases.

Sai's remaining 2026 roadmap covers new RWA markets (stocks, gold, indices), automated strategy vaults, account abstraction with fiat on-ramps, a mobile app, and a backtesting and historical data platform for developers. The stated goal is to match centralized-exchange execution while keeping fully onchain, transparent settlement.

Future strategy and roadmap: Sai is also segmenting its SLP liquidity vaults by volatility profile, and plans to let SLP holders vote on new market listings and earn extra rewards for backing new markets early.
