Overlay Protocol
Overlay Protocol is a perpetuals DEX on Arbitrum that lets traders go long or short on long-tail tokens, narrative assets, and exotic data feeds.

What is Overlay Protocol?
Overlay (overlay.market) brings perp markets to assets that traditional venues can't list. Traders post stablecoin collateral and take leveraged positions on emerging tokens, pre-CEX assets, NFT floors, and other oracle-backed feeds without needing a counterparty. Projects can apply to launch markets for their own tokens and earn a permanent share of trading fees.
