Our Vision: We’re building decentralized infrastructure for bilateral derivatives on any token. Variational is a peer-to-peer trading protocol for perpetuals and generalized derivatives. Variational automates the process of trading and clearing end-to-end for safe bilateral trading of options, futures, perpetuals, and more.
There are two apps currently in development being built on the Variational protocol: Omni, a retail-focused platform for permissionless perps trading, and Pro, a platform catering to advanced traders of nonlinear derivatives.
Variational is maintained by a veteran team active in crypto algorithmic trading since 2017 with prior experience at Google, Meta (Facebook), Goldman Sachs, Etsy, Twilio, and more. All members of our core technical team each have more than a decade of experience in software engineering. For more information, please visit our website.
Variational is backed by industry leaders, including Bain Capital Crypto, Peak XV (formerly Sequoia India/Southeast Asia), Coinbase Ventures, Dragonfly, HackVC, North Island Ventures, and many others.
