BREAKING: The odds of Jesus returning this year have doubled, reaching historic highs. 6% chance He returns.



There is no mention of 'liquidations' in the Bible. Most of the capital sitting in Uniswap is out of range and earning nothing. It's just parked there. What do we do? > Timelock borrows that idle capital > uses it to fully back-leveraged trades for a fixed duration > pays LPs a fee for the rental. Because the full position is collateralized upfront, there's no point during the trade where the protocol needs to step in and liquidate you. aka no liquidations. i.e. Airbnb for idle LP positions (with a usecase)



Now I rest...








Hey @0xelton congrats on your new role, Here's our pitch, building Perps without Liquidations > Problem: Perp dexes are 100Bn+ today, top revenue engines, highest user growth. BUT, current perp dexes(Hyperliquid, Lighter) have limitations: - Liquidations: Avg $500M liquidations daily, 63% new retail traders wipeout to liquidations. - Zero Sum Games: Retail trades P2P against MMs, loses out over time. MMs dominate orderbooks, influence prices + get unfair advantage over retail. - Oracle Risks: Oracles can be manipulated, prices influenced to liquidate traders/gain unfair advantage > Solution: -@Timelock_Trade Perps introduces a novel mechanism to enable perps without liquidations by borrowing idle liquidity from Uniswap in a way that is risk neutral to the LPs. - Pricing is natively derived from Uniswap as AMM so Timelock does not rely on oracles or market makers. - This enables permissionless markets for perps: 5000+ untapped memecoins, altcoins + building rails to onboard RWAs, onchain equities, gold etc. > Why Now? - 30th Jan 2025 UniswapV4 launched, a critical piece toward building this mechanism. - 10th October (and other events) exposed systematic vulnerabilities in HL, Lighter. And we are building the solution. > Why Us? Founders (@yourasianquant CEO + @libkakashi CTO) have been founding team members in the past building - Liquidation free lending borrowing @methlabxyz - Memecoin prediction markets @puff_drgn CEO: Top 0.1% academically, research+quant trader CTO: Coding since 12, cybersec+ethical hacking background. > Traction: 2 weeks on @monad testnet with a $300k TVL memecoin. $7.3M volume, generated $11k fees. Going live on mainnet this week. > Raise: Bootstrapped till date. Raising $2-2.5M at $20-25M valuation. SAFE+Token warrants. > What will we do with the money: $500K+ - Audit budget (3-4 tier 1 audits). $1-$1.5M - Scale team to 10-15 FTE($100k avg). Blitzscale. $250K+ - Research + create content, spread on socials. > Plans for 2026: Q1: Go Live on Monad mainnet. Onboard altcoins, memecoins for perps. Fundraise. Audits + legal. Q2: Seed liquidity for ETH, BTC, HYPE perps. Go multichain, ETH mainnet. Q3 & Q4: Onboard institutions. Automated Vaults. Timelock Options + Yield bearing stablecoin. Seed Round. > What is our unfair advantage? - High barrier to entry, (deep math, finance, derivatives, quant research and dev skill) to build this/similar mechanisms. - We built a new financial derivative. - Both founders full time since 1.5 years, dedication and - 12+ hours of screen time. - 4000+ lines of solidity, already larger, more complex than 99% of all defi products. - Few teams could compete with our headstart in this product space >Raise status: Recd $500k-$700k commitments from tier 2/3 VCs, looking to land a lead from @dragonfly_xyz , @paradigm , @a16z or @RoboVentures Clean cap table, high market potential, open to equity and token raises and team will be based out of NY or Singapore CC: @hosseeb
