1) traders found the deepest liquidity on RWAs onchain.
2) LPs found the vault sitting right behind it earning from the flow.
both sides of the same story.

"don't rebuild the market, plug into it"
May 28
Ostium is building the broker layer for global markets onchain.
Most onchain perp DEXs run order books. This works for crypto which has deep liquidity onchain, but falls apart for RWAs where the deepest liquidity live offchain. Books stay thin and traders pay the price in slippage and wicks.
On 10/10, PAXG perps on Hyperliquid wicked more than 20% while spot gold barely moved. Traders holding long gold faced liquidation risk on a session where gold itself was flat. The same pattern showed up on Lighter where SKHYNIX wicked 22% while the Korean equity market was closed.
Ostium took a different path by pricing trades from the underlying markets directly. Institutional partners like Jump hedge the resulting exposure offchain.
The hedges go into the same venues where these assets clear trillions a day. The same $1M NVDA position that costs ~60 bps on Hyperliquid costs around 9 bps on Ostium.
The roadmap is a full RFQ network where designated liquidity providers compete on every trade in real time.

wtf???? my CFD broker just closed my account for being too profitable
why should I trade on a 2004 interface that can lock my account, charge me every night and make me wait 5 days for my own money (?)
@ostium hurry up and kill the CFD market already, TradFi belongs on-chain

Pleased to finally announce I've been working at @Ostium for the past couple months. I'm helping with propaganda, narrative, and all things taste.
Ostium is the gateway to bringing global markets, like gold, FX, and equities, onchain. Traders have access to true depth and liquidity on crypto rails.
For many years I've been the CEO of being unemployed. Fortunately for my mental health, I'm putting that mantle down to focus on things that matter.

or as I read it: to risk is to live

a year ago @contrarianmarco and i sketched something on a piece of paper and called it "phase two." today it's live!
this launch is the biggest one in ostium's protocol history so far. it's the first time onchain perps connect to traditional markets.
thankful to our institutional partners and super proud of the killer team we've assembled, particularly over the last 4 months, to make this happen.
we've come a long way from the nerdy college kids who started ostium out of my dorm room - here's marco and me the day we got our first check! and yes, he wore collared shirts even then, although now he wears a suit and tie every single day without fail :)
Ostium’s next stage is here.
The upgrade to the liquidity engine is live, connecting onchain flows to traditional markets for the first time.

$5.6M Oil Trading Masterclass on @ostium! 🛢️
This wallet started trading $CL (crude oil) in late February and had already made ~$3M profit before geopolitical tensions escalated.
Since the Iran war, his oil positions gained another $2.6M in unrealized profit, bringing his total earnings from oil alone to $5.6M.
He’s currently holding two $CL long positions worth $8M (6x leverage).
If you are an RWA trader, you need to be tracking this wallet.
