We're building Variational, a protocol that supports peer-to-peer trading, clearing, and settlement of derivatives. The Variational Protocol enables safe and simple trading of perpetuals, options, futures, and more.
We’re building two apps on the Variational Protocol: Omni, for perpetual futures, and Pro for customizable derivatives.
