Stephan Kulik
Stephan Kulik is the editor of PerpDEX Guide, an independent editorial site covering decentralized perpetual futures exchanges. Every review, comparison, and guide on the site is published under his byline.
How the work gets done
The approach is the same on every page: fees, leverage limits, and program terms are taken from each venue's official documentation and verified on the date shown on the page — never repeated from a third-party aggregator. Where a claim can't be verified, the page says so rather than guessing. Interface walkthroughs use screenshots from real, funded accounts, and the site only says it "traded" a venue when a live position or volume is actually visible in those screenshots. The full process is documented in the methodology.
Independence and funding
PerpDEX Guide is funded through referral programs, disclosed on every page that carries a referral link. A referral relationship never changes a rating — see about for how that line is held.
