Permissionless Option Platform

Revolutionizing on-chain options trading through permissionless creation and tokenized derivatives

Introduction

The Challenge

The cryptocurrency options market faces several critical challenges:

  • Traditional on-chain options platforms struggle with user retention beyond initial token incentives

  • Complex options concepts create high barriers to entry

  • Existing solutions focus mainly on major assets, leaving a gap in long-tail asset markets

  • Centralized platforms dominate BTC/ETH options trading

Our Vision

The Permissionless Option Platform reimagines on-chain options trading by:

  • Embracing blockchain's permissionless nature

  • Supporting long-tail assets that traditional platforms ignore

  • Simplifying options creation and trading through tokenization
