No. Bumper is a DeFi protocol. There is no sign-up required. Just connect your Web3 wallet and you can use Bumper.
Bumper’s premiums are charged dynamically based on the volatility in the market whilst your term is open. Whilst this may seem strange, it means that premiums aren’t based on historical price action which isn’t an accurate reflection of whether a contract represents good value.
Bumper’s dynamic system for pricing is, on average, much cheaper than buying a like-for-like put on an options desk, such as Deribit.
Premiums are deducted from the deposited crypto tokens which are being protected by users.
There are no premiums charged for those depositing stablecoins.
Protocol fees may be charged, and are shown prior to committing your tokens.
Currently, Bumper allows users to protect ETH only, and liquidity providers can earn a yield by depositing USDC.
There is no limit to the range of tokens which Bumper can be expanded to support in the future.
Of course! Check out our explainer video to find out more about the protocol.
A Stop Loss places a sell order to an exchanges order book when the threshold is triggered, converting your crypto asset to stablecoins or fiat (assuming the order is filled, which it isn’t guaranteed to be). But if the price rebounds, you end up missing out on upside gains.
Bumper preserves upside gains whilst protecting your wallets value from drops without transferring your tokens to an exchange. Your token isn’t sold when the floor is crossed, unlike when using a Stop Loss.
Bumper’s price protection is a novel alternative to the Put Option with significant benefits for both sides of the market.
You can buy a Put option without having to own an tokens. It’s essentially a gamble based on price movements with a fixed premium paid in advance. You either win, and thus can exercise your option (or just take profit), or you lose and are returned nothing.
Bumper protects tokens that you already own, and it’s premiums are calculated dynamically and applied incrementally, based on actual market volatility. When your position is closed you either claim stablecoins to the value of your floor, or you retrieve your original token (minus the premium).
Unlike a Put option, Bumper returns a composable ‘Bumpered asset’ to protection taker. It also allows protection terms to be renewed (extended) if required.
On the other side of the market, yield seekers generate income over time without the need to continually price, write and locate buyer for Put contracts. Bumper’s pooled architecture facilitates earning from multiple different positions even while reducing exposure to losses from individual contracts.
