About Opyn
Opyn v2 offers European, cash-settled options that auto-exercise upon expiry. Cash settlement means that option holders don’t have to provide the underlying asset in order to exercise. Rather, the options are settled in the collateral asset, and option holders receive the difference between the price of the underlying asset at expiry and the strike price from option sellers. Opyn options (oTokens) are ERC20s, so they can be trading on any decentralized exchange that follows the ERC20 standard. One of the main reasons investors trade options is to generate income. Similar to yield farming, options can be used to earn yield or generate an income in any market condition. Leverage allows traders to use less money to gain exposure to the movement of an asset's price. Options have similar market exposure to owning an asset, but require less money, allowing for more leverage and flexibility for your portfolio.

mStable
mStable is an open and decentralized protocol that unites stablecoins, lending and swapping into one standard. Autonomous and non-custodial stablecoin infrastructure. mStable combines lending income with trading fees to produce higher yielding assets. Smart contract security is mStable’s first priority. The mStable protocol was fully audited by Consensys Diligence and no critical bugs were found. mStable is governed by MTA holders who have staked their tokens to vote on proposals. mStable's governance goes through a process where consensus is reached in progressively concrete stages. Proposals and ideas are surfaced on the Discord or public forum, and are finalized by on-chain signalling by MTA holders. mStable is a collection of autonomous, descentralice, and non-custodial smart contracts. It is built on Ethereum. mStable assets (hereafter mAssets) represent some underlying value peg and are minted/redeemed on-chain via smart contracts.

Tsunami Exchange
Tsunami was designed from the ground up to be easily accessible and understandable for traders with any amount of experience. TSN token makes a platform truly decentralized, allowing holders to share profit with platform and influence core decisions. Futures are derivatives, meaning that they are not the real asset—they just follow the price of an asset. Traditional futures have an expiry date, and the price of a future will move closer to the actual price of the underlying asset as that date draws near. Perpetual futures do not have an expiry date, making them very convenient if you want to keep holding the asset without having to think about expiry. Future contracts allow traders to speculate on the price movement of an underlying asset without actual ownership of the underlying asset, by buying (long) or selling (short) the contract.
