Clients and Partners
Arrow Markets
Arrow markets is a first-of-its-kind hybrid web3 options platform, optimized for user experience (UX). Arrow pricing and hedging works through a network of market makers. Settlement, ownership and transfers are handled on the Avalanche C-chain. The Arrow options trading UX is the product of three years of research, user interviews and design iteration.
CMDT
CMDT helps institutions hedge exposure to under-financialized commodities used for AI buildouts, such as water rights. We are developing a quantitative asset pricing framework for valuing these commodities and an index-based cash settled futures backend stack for institutional hedging. The first contracts will be written on an index for commercial water rights transactions in the Colorado basin.
