IPOR

IPOR is a financial technology company that is developing a suite of products to make borrowing and hedging easier and more efficient. The company has a team of experienced professionals from the blockchain, financial markets, and software development industries. IPOR Labs, their Zug-based firm, is developing the IPOR Index and IPOR Derivatives products.

The IPOR Index and IPOR Derivatives products are designed to fix borrowing rates and hedge exposure by leveraging non-custodial on-chain derivative instruments. The Automated Market Maker (AMM) determines the price of opening a contract by assessing the current IPOR rate, all open contracts, historical data, and the size of the contract. The liquidity pool acts as the contract counterpart and users can open a contract. The IPOR DAO will govern the protocol and give the community the ability to make updates to the protocol, make decisions on construction of the index, launch new products, and more.

IPOR is different from other businesses in the same industry because of their focus on leveraging non-custodial on-chain derivative instruments and their use of an Automated Market Maker (AMM) to determine the price of opening a contract. This allows for a more efficient and cost-effective way to borrow and hedge. IPOR Labs also has a team of experienced professionals from the blockchain, financial markets, and software development industries, which gives them a unique advantage over other businesses in the same industry.
