What is Optix?
Optix is a decentralized option protocol where you can trade options on top crypto assets with up to 50x leverage and earn sustainable yield selling options, directly from your wallet.
What are the unique benefits of Optix?
Optix is revolutionizing the options trading industry with its unique features. One of the standout features is that it offers options on a wide range of assets, not just BTC and ETH. This provides traders with a diverse range of investment strategies that can be tailored to their specific needs.
In addition to a diverse range of assets, Optix offers a simple user experience. The option buying and selling process can be confusing and complicated, but with Optix, it’s as simple as using a decentralized exchange. The platform also supports multiple chains, including Arbitrum and Polygon, making it accessible to a wider range of users.
How does it work?
Collateral in a vault can be used to sell options across multiple assets, put/call directions, expiries, and strikes. This ensures that traders are able to maximize their capital utilization and investment opportunities. Vaults can be created and operated by anyone permissionlessly and compete to offer the best prices to the buyer.
All options on Optix are fully collateralized, non-custodial, and on-chain, providing greater security and transparency to traders.
Who can benefit from Optix?
Optix provides a range of solutions that cater to different types of users, including protocols, DAOs, investors, retail traders, market makers, and institutions.
For protocols, DAOs, and project investors, token vaults and structured products built on a protocol’s native tokens or DeFi primitives offer leverage, risk management & yield opportunities.
For retail traders, Optix provides leverage, portfolio insurance, and yield earning through liquidity provision to vaults.
Market makers & institutions can benefit from Optix’s block trading capabilities for large privately agreed trades against KYC’d and whitelisted parties only, the provision of liquidity at scale, delta hedging and risk warehousing using their own tooling, and using options to hedge their exposure from other trades.

Tokenomics

The OPTIX token is a utility and governance token that provides ownership and governance of the Optix protocol to the Optix Community. The more OPTIX tokens held, the more voting rights one can accrue. This shared control enables alignment of incentives between the Optix team, community, traders, investors, and partners of the ecosystem.
