View ChartAevo is a decentralized derivatives exchange focused on options, perpetual futures, and pre-launch trading. Aevo markets itself as one of the first high-performance decentralized exchanges focused on options and perpetuals. The platform combines an off-chain central limit order book for trade matching with on-chain settlement executed through smart contracts on Ethereum Layer 2. This delivers a trading experience comparable to centralized exchanges while inheriting Ethereum's security. Aevo runs on the Aevo L2, a custom Ethereum rollup built using the Optimism (OP) stack, and supports over 5,000 transactions per second with exchange latency under 10 milliseconds. The native token, AEVO, has a maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens, with approximately 932.7 million already in circulation. AEVO launched in 2024 (2024-03-07), while the team's earlier work dates back to 2020. Since then, Aevo has processed over $10 billion in options trading volume and has expanded into a multi-product derivatives ecosystem.
Aevo was founded by Julian Koh, Ken Chan, and Luís Felipe Carvalho. Julian Koh serves as Co-founder, while Ken Chan is Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer. Ken Chan's background includes experience at Aevo and education at Sunway University (Lancaster), based in San Francisco. Gabriel Ravindran serves as Chief Operating Officer, and Luís Felipe Carvalho is listed among the project leads. The broader Aevo team comes from companies such as Coinbase, Kraken, and Goldman Sachs, as well as institutions including Stanford, MIT, and Cornell. Aevo was developed by the same team that created Ribbon Finance, the pioneers of Decentralized Options Vaults. Before transforming into Aevo, the team received seed funding from Coinbase.
Aevo employs a hybrid trading model that separates trade matching from trade settlement. An off-chain central limit order book handles the matching of trades, providing the speed and responsiveness typically associated with centralized exchanges. Once trades are matched, the actual settlement occurs on-chain through smart contracts deployed on Ethereum Layer 2. This architecture allows Aevo to achieve high throughput of over 5,000 transactions per second and exchange latency below 10 milliseconds, while still benefiting from the security and transparency of Ethereum. The Aevo L2 is a custom EVM roll-up built on the Optimism (OP) stack. This infrastructure supports a robust trading volume, having processed over $30 billion in transactions, and enables a unified margin account where users can trade options, perpetual futures, and other products within a single account.
Aevo distinguishes itself through several key characteristics. It is positioned as one of the first high-performance decentralized exchanges focused on options and perpetuals trading, combining off-chain matching with on-chain settlement to deliver centralized-exchange-like performance without sacrificing decentralization. The platform supports a comprehensive suite of products including options, perpetual futures, OTC trading, automated strategies, pre-launch trading, and yield and structured products, all accessible from a single margin account. Aevo's vault strategies are developed by the team behind Ribbon Finance, bringing proven expertise in decentralized options vaults. The project is backed by prominent investors including Paradigm, Coinbase, Dragonfly, Nascent, Scalar Capital, Ethereal Ventures, Robot Ventures, and Alliance. Vault strategies reached an all-time-high TVL of over $350 million (per aevo.xyz), a historical peak rather than the current scale. Vault strategies have generated over $50 million in premiums and more than 130 auctions (per aevo.xyz).
The AEVO token is used within the Aevo ecosystem. With a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens, AEVO plays a role in the platform's governance and operational framework. Holding AEVO or sAEVO grants governance rights, and staking is offered on the platform. Up to 9% of the total AEVO supply is allocated for Token Liquidity, managed by the Treasury and Revenues Management Committee, which uses these tokens to provide liquidity and support related purposes. Aevo also operates a governance portal and Snapshot governance mechanism, alongside an RBN to AEVO migration and conversion process. The token is integral to the platform's ecosystem, which encompasses trading options, perpetual futures, yield products, and structured products in a single unified environment.
The Aevo ecosystem provides a comprehensive suite of products designed to meet the needs of derivatives traders. Its offerings include options trading, perpetual futures, OTC trading, automated strategies, pre-launch trading, and yield and structured products. The platform also features Aevo Mobile PWA, offering an optimized trading experience on mobile devices under the tagline "Trade Anytime, Anywhere." Ecosystem metrics from the official site show a total volume traded of about $100.5 billion (per aevo.xyz). Vault strategies have generated over $50 million in premiums and more than 130 auctions (per aevo.xyz). The platform supports over 5,000 transactions per second with latency under 10 milliseconds. Community and governance channels include Discord, GitHub, Twitter, Snapshot, and a dedicated Governance Portal, with analytics available through CoinGecko, Token Terminal, and DefiLlama.
AEVO is not mined. It is an ecosystem token on the Aevo L2, an Ethereum rollup built on the Optimism (OP) stack. Users obtain AEVO through exchanges or the RBN-to-AEVO migration, and holding AEVO or sAEVO grants governance rights; the platform also offers staking.
Keeping AEVO tokens safe requires following standard cryptocurrency security practices. AEVO is an Ethereum-based token; store it in a wallet that supports Ethereum-based tokens, and always verify the contract address 0xb528edbef013aff855ac3c50b381f253af13b997 before interacting. For long-term holdings, cold storage solutions such as hardware wallets provide enhanced protection against online threats. Enabling two-factor authentication on exchange accounts, using strong and unique passwords, and being cautious of phishing attempts are essential precautions. Additionally, users should regularly review the permissions granted to smart contracts and avoid sharing private keys or seed phrases with anyone. Storing backups of wallet credentials in secure offline locations further reduces the risk of loss.
AEVO is listed on several major exchanges, including Binance, Coinbase and Kraken (per TradingView FAQ). Compare fees, liquidity and regulatory status before choosing a venue.
