How the protocol works
NFTperp has two price
β€œIndex price” can reference it as true floor price of the #NFT
β€œSpot price” can reference it as the virtual perpetual price based on market demand & supply
Traders can go long or short on perpetual price, their profit will be based on their exit perpetual price.
Index price is an aggregated price feed from on/off chain.
The index price & spot price are kept correlated via funding rate
vAMM
vAMM allows nftperp to have a model that is trader vs trader. It does not require a liquidity pool. It uses the same x*y=k constant product formula as uniswap.
The benefits of it allow nftperp to have a smooth trading experience without the need of liquidity.
But ser how does index price keep correlated with spot price? - funding rate
NFTperp balances out long/short ratio keep the two price correlated via their dynamic funding rate.
TLDR, If there is a lot more β€œLong” then people who are holding long positions have to pay the short position the funding rate %. The difference of Perp & index price are also taken into account
Summary
Nftperp uses a similar model as @perpprotocol. This enable a new way for NFT degens to speculate the price. Although vAMM is not perfect such as to its slippage in size and its small risk of short term depeg in index & spot price.
This is an interesting protocol that allows users to short for hedging their NFTs in bear market, leverage speculate price without buying the whole NFT. It will be interesting to see what other features they are building on this protocol.
Thanks @0xfendiman for being help in their discord. I was lazy asking questions before i started reading the doc. hope i weren't too annoying kek
