We’re hiring top engineers and options traders to build onchain options and structured products at @o1_exchange. You’d be a fit if you know (or can learn fast): 1. Black-Scholes-Merton, Brownian motion, Itô calculus, discrete-time models 2. Liquidity bootstrapping for CLOBs, liquidity vaults, RFQ, AMM infra 3. Delta-neutral options hedging Signals we look for: 1. IMO / IOI / ICPC / IPhO medalists 2. High Codeforces ratings 3. Founders who’ve built something real from zero 4. Quants at HFT shops (HRT, Jane Street, Citadel) or FX / options / exotics traders at banks (Goldman, JPM, Deutsche Bank) My X DM is open. JD:

Back in NYC a week+ after Asia, and I finally get why the best things get built in the US. Jet lag has me up till 8am, and FiDi after midnight has nothing open. No food markets, no snacks, no temptation. In Seoul I'd be deep in KBBQ, somaek, samgyetang, gamjatang and dakgalbi. In Singapore it'd be satay, frog porridge, ang ku kueh, BBQ stingray and nasi lemak. Here in fidi? Just me, some fries in the bridge, and the codebase / telegram / slack / X. Less is more ;(

With the amount of new trading products and novel defi primitives being launched, demand for market makers, liquid funds and general liquidity providers is growing rapidly. There simply isn't enough liquidity, risk capital, or market making infra to support the pace of the new products being launched so I suspect we will see incumbents scale aggressively and potentially an opening for new firms to enter. I see a golden opportunity for onchain finance.

We’ve got more than 71M impressions for the last 3 months across @o1_exchange and @o1_bot, among which I contributed 16.7M impressions myself, ie 23.5%. Why to join @o1_exchange @o1_bot as an affiliate: 1. We’re the most based @base crew. Build product, trade alpha, create viral content, and anything you can think of. We’re the cool kids club. 2. We’ve cracked the secret of how to go viral on X. With the stats above, we can easily 10X from here soon. Once you’re part of @o1_exchange @o1_bot affiliate network, you’re given a much higher weight for initial impressions of your tweets. As an ex ML Eng at Twitter/X during Elon’s acquisition, I know the game well and will help drive the network value of o1 affiliates. 3. We’re super early. My cofounder and I are both software engineers and we had no clue on how to GTM and grow on X, but we engineer out the equation. Ppl know call @stambouli_o1 @o1_exchange the Roy Lee in crypto but I’d say we can demand attention socially while innovating on the product/eng side. 4. I’m personally heavily influenced by @a16z thereby @o1_exchange being very a16z style with my 1st full time job at @databricks which is the fund returner for a16z @bhorowitz and @a16z as the 1st investor of @o1_exchange. We will leverage media to build up influence. We’re a product-driven technology company but also a social media company. Sky is the limit. Being part of @o1_exchange @o1_bot means you get a seat of this rocket ship. Ofc the bar is high and we only work with the best ppl. We’re shooting for the star tgt.
