While standardized derivative offerings are already available in the DeFi sector for some time, the demand for these products is sparse. Clear is taking a unique approach to offeringDeFi derivatives. By making bespoke derivatives available, they can be better tailored to investor needs. The Clear SDK will be available to the public in the coming months and will support barrier options and structured notes at launch, followed by token returns swaps (TRS), coin default swaps (CDS) and more derivative templates.
Clear is also leading the charge on building NFT derivatives in DeFi. The barrier of entry into blue chip NFT collections is extremely high, as buying the cheapest CryptoPunks NFT can cost over $400,000. By constructing indices on top NFT collections and making them available as underlying assets for derivatives, Clear offers a gateway to efficiently gain exposure to quality NFT collections.
The Clear protocol aims to create a DeFi derivative ecosystem where Clear SDK developers from all over the world can easily launch decentralized exchanges offering unique derivative products.
