DeFi Risk Hedging Protocol for On-Chain Metrics
Funding, pool utilization, positioning, exchange flows, book depth. Throb reads all five live and lets you take the opposite side of the one you are exposed to.

Throb Market
Market reads your verified exposure and assembles autonomous hedge products against it. Sized, directed and priced for the risk it actually found. No product exists that your own position does not justify.
Open the MarketThrob Arena
Can you build a better hedge than the protocol’s own default? Train on real paths, tune the hedge, and climb divisions without risking a live position.
Demonstration · your inputs, not live market data
Exposure radiates. Protection radiates against it. What is left is what you still carry.
Residual exposure 100% of notional at 0% hedge ratio
Raises turbulence. The sources stop holding phase.
Introduces the opposing wave. 100% cancels the field exactly.
residual = exposure × (1 − hedge ratio)

Nothing has settled yet
Summed directly from every settled market's actual payout pool (0 settled so far). These are the same figures the dashboard shows, not a projection.
No settled markets yet to base a simulation on.
Modeled on this deployment's own settled markets. A simulation, not a forecast or a promise.
Two things bound what a hedge pays. The move has to have cost you something, because Throb pays the accrued cost of it rather than the whole losing pool. The losing side's stake is then the ceiling on that. Whichever is smaller wins, and the rest goes back to the losing side. A larger hedge therefore buys a larger share of the same pool rather than a larger prize, which is why the ETH figure flattens as you raise the slider while the percentage falls. Past settlements do not predict future ones.
Pick what you already hold. Throb scans for verifiable exposure and explains the risk in those terms. The five signal names only come up once one of them actually applies to you.

Fees lag the move while inventory is still locked.
A basis-point funding move becomes real cost at size.
Sell pressure and borrow fees hit positions already held.
After renouncement the team cannot change a core fee, alter a settlement, block a claim or pause the market engine. Disclosed multisigs still administer cross-venue permissions and delayed cross-chain dividend and liquidity movements. None of them can touch an active position.
Collecting triggers settlement, and anyone can collect.
Signals average on-chain venue state that anyone can read.
Eight symbols, fixed at deployment. Each has a public source for all five signals. Nobody votes.
Thin or unreadable data refunds everyone in full.
Two tiers. Everything core is free. The paid tier adds professional tooling, not access to the protocol.
Free. Full protocol access, 0.25% fee, up to 25 ETH per position.
Five numbers move underneath every DeFi position: perpetual funding, the venue pool's utilization, the long/short split, tokens flowing on and off venues, and where order book depth is sitting. They move for reasons that have nothing to do with headlines, and they quietly cost money to people who are already exposed to them. Throb lets you take an offsetting position on where one of those numbers goes next, over a term you choose. Settlement reads the chain directly.
