APO PLATFORM
WHAT IS APO ?
APO Is Advanced Parimutuel Options, The APO platform allows participants to trade derivative instruments (options) without collateral and without risk of non-payment, unlike a centralized exchange. The platform automatically creates a smart contract for the auction, which lasts until the expiration date, and terminates after making payments to participants.
The platform operates without option sellers. APO does not act as an organizer of these auctions, but performs the functions of developing, maintaining and upgrading the source code.
Trading on platforms has the following differences from centralized exchanges:
- No difference between bid and demand, due to the fact that there is no seller.
- There is no risk of a stock market collision, since public pools are on the Ethereum network and at the time of auction payment is calculated in all situations.
- New option purchases can only be made during the auction.
Why is solving this problem so important?
The crypto-currency market is what’s called “an incomplete market” – for us it was of high interest to solve this type of problem and create a tool that does not violate the principles of the crypto-currency community.
Who benefits from this solution?
The addition of a derivative crypto-currency instrument with a guarantee of payment on expiration date benefits all participants. For example:
Miners can insure against the risk of depreciation in order to maintain profitability
Individual traders can use options to speculate on falling, as well as rising, prices
Companies conducting ICOs can protect the cryptocurrency value raised during the ICO so that
it will not be diminished by price fluctuation when they need to convert it to fiat mone
How does it work
