From devnet app to mainnet in one config change

By zKmex Team

Everything in the zKmex app runs against Solana devnet. You connect a real wallet, request a free airdrop, and trade the full perp stack — open, add margin, get liquidated — with zero financial risk. The code path is identical to production.

When you are ready, you flip the cluster from devnet to mainnet-beta in the SDK config. Markets, risk PDAs, the GPU match, funding, and liquidations all work the same — the only difference is which cluster you point at and that the USDC is now real.

We keep the surface area small on purpose. Fewer concepts means fewer ways to get rekt by your own tooling when real margin is on the line. The app is not a toy version of the protocol; it is the protocol, pointed at a test cluster.
