Optix is a multi-chain permission-less option protocol with sustainable gamefi incentives for all protocol participants.
Anyone can permissionlessly create an an option vault for any ERC20 token and oracle
Liquidity providers earn high yield on crypto assets with passive option vault strategies
Option buyers can access "safe leverage"
Treasuries diversify their balance sheets selling options on their own tokens
Protocols use “trade to earn” to drive viral growth
Traders can buy options with a simple UX
What problems are we trying to solve?
These are the key problems that we are trying to address with Optix:
Yield & Usability
Yield for structured products can be high but they aren’t widely available
Option buying and selling is confusing and complex
Optix provides a simple trading interface to buy options and passive structured products for option sellers to earn compounding yield.
Treasury Management
Treasuries lack the ability to sell their native token into the market without impacting price
Treasury assets aren’t diversified enough
Treasuries lack varied income streams
Staking
Staking is a static mechanism that protocols use to passively reduce selling pressure
Staking doesn't reduce supply or create viral demand
Protocol Objectives
The primary objectives of the protocol are:
Options Objectives
Provide a permissionless platform that anyone can create an option market for any ERC20/Oracle on any Ethereum chain
Reduce the friction & barriers for the transferral of risk
Support the ecosystem participants
Provide a sustainable gamefi experience
Provide this as a service to other protocols
Gamefi Objectives
Bootstrap vault liquidity
Supports ecosystem participants - buyers, lps, referrers & “owners” to create an economy around a vault, allowing “shop front” business for participants that compete and can scale up
