How that compares in Crypto
Too few crypto tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.
Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the dYdX badges page.
Before you pay for dYdX
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at Free. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
dYdX runs on web, and is published by dYdX Foundation of Decentralized. The full record is on the dYdX review, and the rest of the category is under best crypto tools.
