IVLP
The primary objectives of providing liquidity on IVX are:
To collateralize option positions initiated by traders, ensuring liquidity for users seeking to exit before the expiry of their positions.
To collateralize dynamic delta hedging trades on external perpetual protocols, effectively reducing market exposure on the liquidity pool
The process of providing liquidity on IVX can involve depositing native $USDC tokens into the queue contract. In return, the queue contract mints an equivalent $IVLP ERC-20 token serving as proof of the liquidity provider's deposits.
To withdraw from IVLP, the liquidity provider is required to sign an order on the queue contract. The equivalent amount of $USDC, at the price of $IVLP at the chosen epoch's end, is then transferred to the liquidity provider.
Assets within the queue are deposited or withdrawn from IVLP every 24 hours, coinciding with the expiry date of option positions (8:00 AM UTC)
The price of $IVLP at any moment in time is given by the formula below :
