GammaSwap vs Moralis

GammaSwap

GammaSwap is an innovative decentralized derivatives protocol that enables trading of volatility by allowing users to borrow LP positions from AMM liquidity pools, creating a market for going long or short on implied volatility without needing a traditional options exchange or order book. It is one of the most technically novel volatility products in DeFi, built for sophisticated traders who want directional exposure to price swings rather than just price direction. The core mechanism works by enabling traders to borrow Uniswap v3-compatible LP tokens from liquidity pools and pay a continuous borrow rate equal to the impermanent loss accrued by the LP position. This creates an elegant two-sided market: liquidity providers earn borrow fees that compensate them for IL risk, while volatility traders gain convex exposure to price movement. When assets move significantly in either direction, borrowed LP positions gain value relative to the borrow cost, effectively giving the trader a long-gamma position. For LPs seeking to hedge their impermanent loss exposure on HyperEVM AMMs, GammaSwap provides a natural counterparty. A liquidity provider who is short gamma can take an offsetting long-gamma position through GammaSwap, dramatically reducing the directional risk of market-making in volatile assets. This opens up AMM liquidity provision to a wider class of market participants who previously avoided it due to IL risk. GammaSwap operates without external price oracles as it derives all pricing purely from on-chain LP data and pool reserves, making it manipulation-resistant and fully permissionless. Any token pair with sufficient on-chain AMM liquidity can have a GammaSwap market created for it, enabling a long tail of volatility markets across HyperEVM assets. On HyperEVM, GammaSwap integrates with Uniswap v3-compatible concentrated liquidity DEXes to offer volatility products on Hyperliquid spot assets, complementing the perpetuals market with a new layer of derivatives exposure. The protocol is designed for quant traders, volatility arbitrageurs, and sophisticated DeFi participants who understand options greeks and want to express volatility views on-chain. GammaSwap has been audited and is backed by leading DeFi investors. Its novel approach to permissionless volatility trading positions it as a foundational primitive for the next generation of on-chain derivatives.
