According to dYdX Foundation, an on-chain governance vote is live to upgrade the FARTCOIN-USD market from isolated margin to cross margin (source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 12, 2025: https://twitter.com/dydxfoundation/status/1988562721613193353). The vote ends on Nov 13, 2025 at 11:11 UTC, defining the decision window for margin-mode changes on this market (source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 12, 2025: https://twitter.com/dydxfoundation/status/1988562721613193353). The proposal is recorded as Proposal 312 on the dYdX Chain with on-chain status and details viewable on Mintscan (source: Mintscan dYdX Proposal 312: https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals/312). Cross margin on dYdX allows collateral to be shared and PnL to be netted across positions, while isolated margin confines risk to a single position, directly impacting leverage, liquidation thresholds, and margin utilization mechanics for the affected market (source: dYdX documentation on margin modes). The forum discussion provides governance context and rationale relevant to margin upgrades across markets, which is pertinent for understanding implementation considerations (source: dYdX Forum: https://dydx.forum/t/drc-upgrade-2z-usd-and-zec-usd-markets/4493/2). Traders active in FARTCOIN-USD perps should account for the different risk engine behavior under cross margin versus isolated if the proposal passes, as margin netting can alter position sizing, collateral allocation, and liquidation dynamics on dYdX (source: dYdX documentation on margin modes; source: Mintscan dYdX Proposal 312: https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals/312).
