What is Voltz Labs
Voltz is a noncustodial automated market maker for Interest Rate Swaps (IRS). Voltz uses a Concentrated Liquidity Virtual AMM (vAMM) for price discovery only, with the management of the underlying assets performed by the Margin Engine. The combined impact of these modules enables counterparties to create and trade fixed and variable rates through a mechanism that is up to 3,000x more capital efficient than alternative interest rate swap models, whilst also providing Liquidity Providers and Traders with significant control and flexibility over their positions.
Voltz Labs was started by Stanford and Oxford educated founders who believe in a future that’s more equitable, transparent, collaborative and community-driven. Their first contribution was a zero-to-one innovation, Voltz Protocol, that will unlock the next wave of growth within DeFi and web3 more broadly.
Voltz Labs is now a team of creatives and innovators with backgrounds spanning Google, BAML, Meta, Citi and many more. Along with educational backgrounds from Oxford, Cambridge, Stanford and others too. The team is also supported by some of the biggest investors in the world and Angels from the likes of Aave, Compound, Synthetix and Ribbon.
