What is Avantis

Avantis is a decentralized leverage trading platform for cryptocurrencies and forex. One big area of innovation here is introducing dynamic risk management for liquidity providers via tranches, which allows them to select their appropriate risk-reward level. This optionality helps liquidity providers that prefer a different risk profile to stay allocated in the pool instead of looking elsewhere. They plan to offer a junior and senior tranche, which provides returns and shares risk in a specific ratio given the balance of those pools. This allows for fine-grained control to LPs over their risk and return profile, allowing for a diverse LP pool, deep liquidity for traders and an organic flywheel for high LP returns.

Our mission is two-fold:

  • Empower any trader to access trading leverage across any asset class with low fees, self custody and transparent execution
  • Empower anyone to become a market-maker and get access to yields from sophisticated financial products like derivatives

Vision:

  • Avantis becomes the most user-friendly decentralized platform for margin-based products (perpetuals, options, onchain casino), and the largest DAO of the Superchain (Optimism, Base and any L2s built on the OP stack)
