Description
GammaSwap is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol built on the Arbitrum Mainnet that enables the trading of perpetual onchain options without relying on oracles. This allows users to gain permissionless leverage on any token and trade volatility with no commissions. The platform is designed for both speculators looking to profit from market movements and hedgers seeking to mitigate risks like impermanent loss in automated market makers (AMMs). GammaSwap has demonstrated significant traction with over $19.6 million in Total Value Locked (TVL) and over $8.3 million in Open Interest. The protocol features products like the gETH yield token and has its own governance token, $GS, to promote liquidity and decentralization. To support its users, GammaSwap provides extensive educational resources through the GammaSwap Academy and conducts research on DeFi topics. The community participates in governance through GammaSwap Improvement Proposals (GIPs) discussed on its forum before being voted on via Snapshot.Grant Funding
