What is Opium?
Opium is a decentralized protocol built on Ethereum for creating, settling, and trading any derivative. The platform provides traders with a trustless, transparent, and audited derivatives ecosystem, enabling users to earn yield, hedge risk, speculate, and construct custom derivative products with no coding experience required. Opium uses a governance model based on a DAO, where token holders submit votes on governance proposals. The protocol enables ownership of automated trading strategies and structured products, with users able to set their own fee structures and benefit from trading volumes.
