Recent history includes a major outage on Dec 24 (189 days ago), refunds issued, and a spike in manipulative trading. PENGU markets are back live after being demo-only.

About

Speed Trading is a leverage trading application on Abstract built by Pandora, the team behind pandora.fun. It is designed for fast, high-leverage trading on the consumer chain, branded "Trading on the Consumer Chain."

What is Speed Trading

Speed Trading lets users open long or short leveraged positions on Abstract assets directly from a streamlined trading interface. It draws on Abstract's canonical DEX liquidity rather than running a separate order book, so trades route into the deepest pools available on the chain.

Key Features

  • Long and short leveraged positions on supported Abstract pairs.
  • Take-profit controls and adjustable position sizing.
  • Both a demo mode (paper trading) and a real-trade mode.
  • Wallet connection via the Abstract Global Wallet (AGW) and standard EOA wallets.

How It Works

As a Pandora product, Speed Trading sits on top of Abstract's native liquidity and tooling. Traders connect a wallet, choose a market, set direction and size, and manage positions in-app. The "Abstract Alpha" release brought the product live to early users on the chain.

SpeedTradingEx (1.2K followers) experienced a major outage on Jan 2-3, 2026, with deposit and trade execution failures, followed by refunds for unexecuted close orders and a spike in manipulative trading. The platform is now back online with improved scaling, but PENGU markets remain demo-only while BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP/DOGE pairs are live. A $5,000 Speed Royale prize pool competition runs bi-weekly, and holiday rewards ended Jan 5.

The account has been inactive for 161 days, with the last tweet about a Speed Royale competition. Earlier activity showed platform outages and malicious activity (181d ago) followed by refunds and a badge update. The account is a trading platform on Abstract Chain, but the lack of recent posts suggests possible dormancy or hiatus.
