Trade premarket options on anything IPOs, TGEs, RWAs, and more

Trade Before Launch

PreMarket enables you to trade options on assets before they officially launch. Capture alpha opportunities in IPOs, TGEs, RWAs, and emerging markets.

IPOs & TGEs

Trade premarket options on upcoming token generation events and initial public offerings

Real World Assets

Access premarket opportunities for tokenized real-world assets before they go live

Universal Coverage

From traditional markets to DeFi—trade premarket options on virtually anything

How it Works

FDV bands transform vague speculation into structured, measurable conviction with bounded risk

The Mechanism

Premarket organizes belief around FDV bands — price ranges that define your upside based on where an asset lists.

Example:

Buy exposure to the "$3-5B" band for $100 per $1B width = $200 premium

Lists at $6B? You earn the full $200 (net profit: $100)

Bands below the listing FDV pay full

Containing band pays partial (linear)

Higher bands expire worthless

Why It Matters

This design replaces binary speculation ("will it pump?") with structured payoff curves.

For Traders

Express conviction with known maximum exposure upfront — no unlimited downside

For Projects

Reference market-formed FDV curves for treasury planning and immunize from FDV criticism

For Markets

Continuous discovery of fair valuation before launch — like options markets imply volatility
