#ENA Solved Yield. Paradex Is Solving Derivatives. 📊
Ethena built the delta-neutral model and turned synthetic yield into a scalable DeFi product.
#DRV built the early on-chain options infrastructure, proving that derivatives can be self-custodied and permissionless.
Both created the proof of concept. Neither combined it into a single execution environment.
Paradex does.
BTC dated options are in public beta alongside Gold, Silver, Platinum, and FX perps, all running through a ZK-encrypted order book on a dedicated CairoVM chain.
Paradex is backed by Paradigm, which manages over $1T in annual institutional options flow, and has processed $250B in cumulative trading volume.
The infrastructure is live.
