Announcing our $3M Raising, incubated by BASE From the very beginning of 2023, our team made a bold bet: that options will become the largest financial market in the world, and that the future of this market must be built onchain. Coming from TradFi institutions like Morgan Stanley, UBS, and Bank of America, we had seen firsthand the power of options, derivatives, and structured products in shaping global markets. With BaseVol, we set out to bring that expertise fully into crypto — making options accessible, transparent, and built for the next generation. We started where even TradFi had already validated the demand: 0DTE options. Our flagship product, BaseVol.com, offers ultra-short options with high leverage and simple UX — designed for retail adoption at scale. From there, we expanded into onchain vaults, our version of structured products, where strategies generate yield in ways familiar to professionals but consumable by everyone. By 2023–24, the pace of TradFi DeFi convergence accelerated. Coinbase began investing heavily into derivatives and options infrastructure. At this pivotal moment, we joined Base Batches 001 and became the global 2nd prize winner. That program transformed us. Before Base Batches, we had product-market potential but lacked the GTM partnerships to truly scale. Through Base Batches, the missing pieces clicked: Coinbase and Base provided strategic support, ecosystem connections, and access to a world-class network of investors and partners. The Base team also played a crucial role in helping us secure fundraising intros and connections, which made this milestone possible. The impact has been profound. Together with the Base/Coinbase teams, we’ve built complementary flows between onchain retail demand (BaseVol) and offchain professional liquidity (Deribit), opening doors to deeper collaboration. We’ve partnered with forward-looking protocols like Virtuals, preparing for the coming AgentFi era. We were even invited to Network School, broadening our perspective beyond crypto and helping us think globally. We are deeply grateful for this incubation, and especially thankful to David Hyuckjae Park @davidandpassion (Base East Asia Lead) for discovering us early and helping us debut on the global stage. Today, we’re proud to announce our next milestone: BaseVol has raised $3M. * Seed Round — led by Neoclassic Capital, whose vision of bridging East to West makes them the perfect partner. Joined by Virtuals Ventures, Baboon VC, WTIC, and other family offices/strategic partners across regions. @NeoclassicCap @virtuals_vc @BaboonVC * Pre-seed Round — led by Altos Ventures @altosvc, with VTG. Altos is widely known as Korea’s unicorn factory, backing 6 out of 10 Korean unicorns and helping build 8 unicorns to date. Along the way, we’ve also been supported by Base Grants @base and notable angels from Ares, IMM, Palantir, Bank of America, Credit Agricole, and others which continue to empower our journey. Immediate Next Plan Looking ahead, our focus is on the launch of our Onchain Vault next month. This vault will be managed by Agents — a new paradigm we are co-developing with Virtuals Protocol @virtuals_io, one of our newest backers/partners. These Agents will automate vault management, bridging human trading strategies and autonomous onchain execution. The launch of our first Agent-managed vault marks the beginning of our AgentFi journey: where anyone can access sophisticated trading and yield strategies, not only through simple clicks but also through the intelligence of autonomous Agents. From 0→1 with Altos Ventures, to incubation through Base Batches, to Neoclassic leading our Seed — every step has been powered by those who believed in our mission. To all our partners, investors, and ecosystem supporters: thank you. This is just the beginning. BaseVol is building the future of options trading on Base. From simple 0DTE gamified trading to sophisticated structured vaults, from retail to institutional, we are laying the foundation for the next great financial market. Our ambition is to become the onchain Morgan Stanley — and with the momentum we now have, that future feels closer than ever. Still day 1 and it's a good day to build on Base. BaseVol.

What's driving markets: intraday ranges are widening, overnight gaps keep whipsawing direction. The short end is doing most of the work. This is 0DTE's environment. A 0DTE option opens and expires the same day: premium decays to zero by the close, so P&L is a function of hours, not weeks. No overnight gap, no weekend decay. @BaseVolApp runs 0DTE BTC options on Base. A.T.M. vaults (incl. Genesis Vault, daily drawdown caps) provides automated exposure to 0DTE options.

Sharing our monthly update, presented to you by @virtuals_vc

Down yesterday, up today. One way to avoid market swings is to go ultra-short term. Pro tip: you can share $1K with @Arkada_gg while you are at it. Just 1 day left for this opportunity!

Remainder of mindshare campaign rewards from @arbusai have been distributed. 258 wallets shared a total of 1,201,082 $ATM. TX: basescan.org/tx/0xd4b5d79b8c…

Came across some news that @BaseVolApp’s was outperforming $BTC, so I decided to dig into how it works. The setup is pretty simple: → you’re not really betting on direction. → you’re betting on movement. The vault buys daily BTC volatility, so it matters less whether $BTC goes up or down. What matters more is whether the move is big enough. Since $BTC usually moves around ~2-4% a day, I can see why this kind of setup has been doing well. I parked some free capital in the High Vol Vault and I’ll check back in a few days to see what happens. P.S $ETH gas payments are stupid for this btw @VitalikButerin fix this now.

Giving back to our traders! We're setting up 1,000 USDT up for our 1 Min traders, for one week only. Head over to @Arkada_gg and register to join.

Milestone after milestone. Reinventing how everyone trades crypto. Thank you @virtuals_vc !
