Deri Protocol, a well-known decentralized derivatives exchange, has announced that it will end support for major networks. The move comes after the community voted to end support for zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM, and Manta Network. According to Deri Protocol’s official social X announcement, the platform is doing this due to consistently lower activity. Therefore, the consumers with liquidity or open positions on the respective networks should immediately migrate them to other compatible chains.
And the vote was successful!
The team continues to remove support for @MantaNetwork, @0xPolygon zkEVM, and @zksync Era; users with open positions or liquidity on these networks should immediately migrate their positions or funds to another supported chain.

Deri Protocol removes support for zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM as community approves proposal
After the successful vote to remove support for zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM and Manta Network, Deri Protocol is officially implementing this step. This will impact consumers who have money or open positions in these ecosystems. To avoid problems, they will therefore have to shift such positions or liquidity to the other supported chains when requested. After completion of the takedown, consumers will no longer have any option to add liquidity or trade it through the above-mentioned networks.
Nevertheless, operations on the rest of the supported blockchains will continue to operate unaffected. This development takes place at a time when the platform is experiencing significantly low activity. While discussing this, the platform team appreciated the support and participation of those holding $DERI in the latest voting process.
Reducing unnecessary costs to ensure the sustainability of the ecosystem
According to the Deri Protocol, the vote on the proposal to abolish support for the above-mentioned networks was completed on December 31. Now the platform will remove support for zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM, and Manta Network. With such steps, the Deri Protocol is reportedly trying to ensure the sustainability of its ecosystem and eliminate unnecessary fund expenditure.
