Welcome to Avantis, the most advanced margin-based perpetuals platform for trading and market-making cryptocurrencies, forex and commodities
Here are some links to get you started:
Our mission is two-fold:
1) Empower any trader to access trading leverage across any asset class with low fees, self custody and transparent execution
2) Empower anyone to become a market-maker and get access to yields from sophisticated financial products like derivatives
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)
Avantis is developing a user-friendly decentralized leveraged trading platform, where users can long or short synthetic crypto, forex and commodities using a financial primitive called "perpetuals"
Synthetic leverage combined with a USDC stablecoin LP makes Avantis very capital efficient, allowing for a wide selection of trade-able assets and high leverage (up to 100x). We are also unlocking fine-grained risk management for our LPs via time and risk parameters, allowing any LP to be a sophisticated market maker for all kinds of derivatives, starting with perpetuals
