Ecosystem

Asset Custody, Clearing and Settlement

Dederi's asset custody, clearing, and settlement processes are fully executed on-chain, currently deployed on Ethereum Layer 2 network Arbitrum, with native Arbitrum USDC as the only accepted collateral for derivatives trading. We plan to expand to additional Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks in the near future, while developing cross-chain asset support and collateralization methods to accommodate a broader range of collateral types.

Derivatives Clearing and Settlement

A robust clearing and settlement system forms the foundation of all decentralized derivatives trading, which is the infrastructure we are committed to building. While currently offering futures and options contracts for BTC and ETH, the protocol is designed to accommodate derivatives of additional underlying assets in future iterations.

Applications

On the foundation of a solid decentralized derivatives clearing and settlement infrastructure, various decentralized derivatives applications can be developed, including exchanges, RFQ platforms, brokerage platforms, and asset management platforms. At present, only the RFQ platform, Dederi RFQ, has been developed and we are channeling more resources into the development and enhancement of the decentralized clearing and settlement system. WWe welcome and support developers in creating other types of decentralized derivatives applications and services.

Tools

With the expanding landscape of decentralized derivatives applications, there is increasing demand for diverse tools, encompassing structured products, risk management, trade execution, hedging, and fund management solutions. To date, we have developed Dederi-Builder, a structured product tool integrated within Dederi-RFQ that enables retail and semi-professional traders to construct derivatives trading strategies more effectively. We actively encourage and support tool providers in developing additional derivatives trading solutions.
