22/25 Caveats:
β’ Panoptions are perpetual options with streaming premia rather than upfront premia, so payoff curves may differ from above
β’ Panoption premia depends on a number of factors including the underlying price path and LP width
If you're a @Uniswap LP, you're missing out on some serious gains.
We did the math and the research to help LPs earn 3x higher returns on Panoptic with no extra effort.
Uniswap LPs are getting wrecked.
π³οΈ Impermanent Loss (IL) eats into profits.
π Oversupply dilutes your returns.
π₯± Active management? A full-time job.
But Panoptic lets you hedge, earn premiums, and profit in ANY marketβbullish, bearish, or sideways.
3 ways to LP, but one wins big:
π΄ Bullish LP β Wins if prices rise, loses if they fall
π΅ Bearish LP β Wins if prices fall, loses if they rise
β«οΈ Delta-Neutral LP β 2x fees, but loses if prices moves a lot
On Panoptic, LPs earn 3x moreβjust by letting traders borrow liquidity.
Let's explore the relation between Panoptic and @Uniswap.
Uniswap v3 lets LPs concentrate liquidity in a specific price range, mirroring a put option payoff. The position converts into 100% of token Y when above range and 100% of token X when below range.
In Uniswap v3, LPs earn fees from traders as their liquidity facilitates trades. Panoptic extends this by introducing the concept of streamia, where option sellers continually earn these trading fees as streaming premia.
Panoptic introduces a market for lending and borrowing Uniswap v3 LP tokens. This enables traders to create long and short options positions.
Any token on Uniswap can be bought or sold as an option.

1/8 Perpetual options are a new financial derivative, largely unexplored. Unlike traditional options, perpetual options don't expire.
But can you assign a 'time' component to something perpetual? How does pricing and rolling of perpetual options work? Letβs dive in π
2/8 β³ What are timescales?
For perpetual options, timescales represent the estimated duration over which the option is expected to accrue premia. The concept is similar to the width of a LP position in @Uniswap V3, where the LP position aims to earn fees over a certain period.
3/8 For example:
The price range of this one-week (1W) $AVAX put is between $34.54 and $36.68. This means that the option will accumulate premia as long as the $AVAX price is between $34.54 and $36.68.
The width of this 1W option is $2.14 (2.14 = 36.68 - 34.54).
Last month's market saw significant developments, starting with the monumental success of the BlackRock iShares Bitcoin ETF, which surpassed $2 billion in assets. This landmark achievement signals growing investor interest in crypto-based ETFs.
2/6 Following the ETF announcement, the crypto market experienced volatility compression. Both BTC and ETH implied vol moved sharply downward.
3/6 The anticipation around a potential Ethereum ETF grows, with regulatory approval deadlines approaching. This, coupled with the Bitcoin halving event, could significantly influence market dynamics in the coming months.

Markets crashing with bearish sentiment β let's dive into some analysis of how the top traders used puts to go short and straddles to collect juicy streamia (streaming premia) fees in the trading arena!
Trader 0x376f has a huge lead on all $AVAX traders, currently sitting in first place with +57.34% PnL. Looks like 0x376f tested out a 0.3 AVAX put (left) that lost $0.44 in streamia before doubling down on a 7 AVAX contract (right)!
