Koba Finance x Zeta Markets

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Koba and Zeta have entered into a strategic partnership to bring a suite of vanilla to exotic DeFi derivative solutions to Solana.

What Does This Mean?

Catered to users with varying sophistication levels and risk/reward appetites, Koba will be offering DeFi Options Vaults (DOVs) ranging from vanilla to exotic derivative structures, as well as ancillary services for an all-inclusive, end-to-end investing experience.

Koba’s DOVs on Solana will be powered by Zeta FLEX, allowing Koba users to benefit from an open architecture platform to get best pricings from a wide pool of market makers and execute efficiently on and off-chain. Beyond just yield generation strategies, Koba also offers all weather vaults (for strategic asset allocation needs) as well as directional vaults (for users with higher conviction on where markets will trade), empowering users towards making more thoughtful asset allocation decisions and harnessing the true power of DeFi.

“We’ve been so impressed by the team at Koba. Options are incredibly versatile and we’re excited to see Koba taking advantage of this with a truly innovative product suite, pushing the DOV & DeFi ecosystems forward on Solana”

Tristan Frizza — Core Contributor at Zeta

Why Is This Important?

While the DeFi ecosystem has seen tremendous adoption in yield generation products, investor needs have largely progressed beyond just chasing for higher yields. Institutional and retail interest for interesting non-delta one strategies that offer upside participation and/or downside protection have picked up, boosting interest in the derivatives markets as we advance towards even deeper market liquidity. As such, there is a natural synergy between Koba and Zeta’s platform offerings. With Zeta’s technological infrastructure powering Koba’s derivatives strategies, both protocols are focused on delivering a first class investment experience.

“We have been partnering closely with the Zeta team in building the next phase of DeFi option strategies, leveraging on Zeta’s industry-leading infrastructure and Koba’s wealth and asset management experience. We are excited to collaborate further to democratize investing and offer exotic solutions (made simple) for users’ strategic and tactical allocation needs.”

When Will This Be Available?

Koba Finance will be launching our vanilla DOVs (e.g. covered call) on Devnet first before launching their exotic strategies during the course of Q3–4. Stay tuned and follow our socials below for more information!
