Pods Finance
A non-custodial options protocol where users buy and sell BTC and ETH puts and calls through an options-specific AMM.
What is Pods Finance?
Pods is a decentralized options protocol on Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Users buy puts to hedge BTC or ETH exposure, sell options to earn premiums, or provide one-sided liquidity to the protocol's options AMM. Sellers can post yield-bearing assets like Aave aTokens as collateral so unused funds keep earning interest during each cycle. Backed by Framework Ventures, IOSG, and Republic, with audited and non-upgradable smart contracts.
