Architecture & Technology

Underlying Protocol

Flow Strike is powered by the Hyperliquid L1 protocol. Hyperliquid is a high-performance execution layer designed for traders who demand speed and reliability. This combination enables Flow Strike to deliver:

• Low Latency: Near-instant transaction confirmations.

• High Throughput: Scalability for high-frequency trading and robust options markets.

• EVM Compatibility: Easy integration with existing DeFi tools and smart contract ecosystems.

Data Oracle

Price data is crucial for fair and accurate options pricing. Flow Strike’s data oracle aggregates quotes from both Deribit and Bybit in a 50/50 weighting. This approach ensures a balanced, robust data feed that is less susceptible to singular exchange outages or manipulative behavior.

Oracle Highlights:

• Aggregation Model: (Deribit Price + Bybit Price) / 2

• Update Frequency: Real-time, with redundancy and fallback logic.

• Resilience: If one exchange experiences downtime, the oracle fails gracefully, defaulting to the other source’s data with appropriate safeguards.

Smart Contracts

Flow Strike’s smart contracts handle deposits, withdrawals, option issuance, settlements, and liquidations. All contracts are thoroughly audited and publicly available.

• Deposit & Settlement Contracts: Manage collateral flows and ensure correct payouts at expiration.

• Order Book & Matching Engine: A hybrid on-chain/off-chain system ensures fast matching while maintaining on-chain custody and settlement guarantees.

• Risk Management Modules: Built-in constraints and risk parameters protect traders and liquidity providers alike.
