BULK
UnauditedNewBULK is a Solana-native perpetuals DEX that pairs centralized-exchange-class order matching — via a validator co-resident execution layer and BULKBFT consensus — with on-chain self-custody and settlement.

The Problem
On-chain derivatives venues have historically lagged centralized exchanges on latency and execution quality, forcing pro traders to give up self-custody for speed.
The Solution
BULK embeds an order-matching engine directly into Solana validators (bulk-agave) and orders transactions with a leaderless BFT consensus (BULKBFT), targeting ≈20 ms matching and ≈40 ms finality while settling and self-custodying margin on Solana.
Why it Matters
A validator co-resident execution layer plus a correlation-aware portfolio-margin risk engine — CEX-class latency with on-chain PDA self-custody and FROST-threshold withdrawals.
