Pods’ Options AMM integrates with Chainlink

Pods is pleased to announce their integration of Chainlink Price Feeds as a critical input that powers our Options-Specific Automated Market Maker (AMM) algorithm. By relying on price reference data from Chainlink Price Feeds, their AMM can generate accurate prices on options contracts in a highly secure and reliable manner. Most notably, Chainlink Price Feeds have strong market coverage across all trading environments, mitigating exploits like exchange downtime and data manipulation attacks from flash loans.

Their initial integration of Chainlink Price Feeds is now live on both the Ethereum and Polygon (Matic) mainnets. Our AMM references the Chainlink Price Feeds for underlying assets (ETH, BTC and others) natively on both blockchains to continuously price options contracts, creating a greater amount of liquidity for all types of options markets.
