dHEDGE on Optimism
dHEDGE is an EVM based protocol that allows investors to allocate funds to managers. These managers use the investors' funds to invest into whitelisted assets, via whitelisted protocols. These investments can be focused on growth, yield, or market neutral strategies such as LP’ing. The manager of a fund never has direct access to investor funds and investors are able to retract their funds from the protocol at any time. Managers that perform well are rewarded with performance based fees.
On dHEDGE there are currently over 500 funds with AUM of over $24 million. The protocol is currently deployed to Mainnet and Polygon with near term plans to deploy to Arbitrum. We currently support a range of protocols including Synthetix, Sushi, 1inch QuickSwap, Aave and Balancer. With plans to support Uniswap (v3), Perpetual Protocol, Compound.
On December 16 dHEDGE will be deploying on the Optimistic Ethereum rollup chain. Improving synergies with the Synthetix ecosystem, and enabling managers access to the current suite of synths on Optimism.
To celebrate this milestone, dHEDGE and Synthetix are co-sponsoring a $100k USD trading competition over a 4 week period from the launch date.
Launch Trading Competition
The trading competition will aim to incentivize both manager skill and investor nous.
The first $70k of rewards will be distributed equally to investors in each of the top 5 pools with the highest return at the end of the 4 week competition period. Rewarding investors for choosing a leading pool, as well as the managers for their investing skill. Incentives are pro-rata weighted based on an investors % ownership of the pool.
The remaining $30k of rewards will be awarded to investors in all Optimism pools via way of daily lottery, with a $1k prize in SNX and DHT tokens.
