This groundbreaking product revolutionizes DeFi by merging PancakeSwap’s robust platform with Stryke cutting-edge options protocol. 
Overview of PancakeSwap’s CLAMM Options Debuting on the Arbitrum Chain, PancakeSwap’s American-style CLAMM options offer flexibility with diverse expiry durations (1, 2, 12, and 24-hour durations) and include markets such as ARB/USDC, ETH/USDC, and wBTC/USDC. These options in Call and Put types utilize strike prices based on v3 pool ticks. Exercising positions before closure avoids in-the-money options expiring worthless, and users can choose to enable auto-exercise to skip further actions and realize profits automatically at expiry. 
CLAMM Options: A Liquidity Game-Changer Crafted by the Stryke team, the CLAMM options protocol introduces an efficient dual liquidity provision system for options traders and PancakeSwap v3 pools. Here’s how it operates: ● Liquidity Addition: Users adding liquidity to CLAMM options simultaneously contribute to designated PancakeSwap v3 (CLAMM) pools within their chosen price range. ● Options Trading: When an options trader initiates a position, liquidity is extracted from the v3 pool to facilitate options selling, with the user becoming an options seller and receiving a premium. ● Idle Liquidity Management: Unutilized liquidity resides in PancakeSwap v3 pools, potentially earning trading fees if the pool price remains within the liquidity range. ● Consistent Payoff: Selling options and providing liquidity in v3 pools mirror the same IL or token balance, ensuring users face no increased risk compared to conventional liquidity provision methods. ● Minimal Risks: Users face minimal risks, as liquidity might remain unutilized due to lower options buying demand, and liquidity is added to the pool in an inactive range, potentially not earning fees. The collaboration signifies a significant stride forward, offering users diverse trading opportunities and elevating liquidity providers’ fee-earning potential. “PancakeSwap’s collaboration with Stryke to launch CLAMM Options Trading marks an exciting moment for DeFi innovation. Together with Stryke’s cutting-edge options protocol, we’re reshaping the landscape of decentralized finance, a significant leap forward and providing new possibilities for users and liquidity providers alike.” – Chef Mochi, Head of PancakeSwap “Coinciding with the recent upgrade to the popular CLAMM product we are thrilled to work with PancakeSwap. PancakeSwap will be among the first DEXs we work with in terms of leveraging v3 liquidity beyond Uni v3. Being the leading BSC DEX means an exciting new chapter in on-chain options trading for Stryke and expanding our products to new ecosystems. PancakeSwap fans can access Stryke via the navigation bar on the PancakeSwap UI.”
