Ostium launches institutional hedging layer, the first decentralized execution layer goes live
Crypto news, Ostium Labs on Tuesday launched its first “decentralized execution layer,” an architecture that routes protocol trader net directional flow to a series of institutional hedge partners, including Jump, major brokers, and other companies active in traditional markets. Previously, Ostium’s public liquidity pool settled trades and absorbed all net directional risk, with the team stating that while this structure served early users, it limited execution quality and open interest. Under the new model, separate capital pools will route net risk programmatically to institutional partners and settle daily. The new infrastructure enables Ostium to challenge centralized CFD brokers, targeting a market of approximately $10 trillion per month. According to data from DefiLlama, Ostium’s monthly trading volume hit a record high of $6.11 billion in March, and since launching in 2024, it has processed over $50 billion in total trading volume.
