OpusTreasury

OpusTreasury is the custodian and books and records for LP deposits, LT margin collateral, and the insurance fund’s escrow account and serves to:

  1. Ensure LT aggregate position risk is in balance with LP pool’s aggregate liquidity; b. Work with the margin and liquidation engine (MLE) to manage LT’s margin collateral requirements and liquidations;

  2. Manage expiration cash settlement procedures;

  3. Maintain real time position and mark-to-market updates reflected on LP and LT dashboards;

  4. Collect a percentage of LP fees for the insurance fund.

Each option traded by the LT community creates a corresponding change in LP collateral available, and is monitored continuously by OpusTreasury to guarantee cash settlement liquidity for each open option position.

The amount of liquidity in an aggregate LP pool will be tracked using:

  1. Total Liquidity tracks the amount of liquidity deposited by LPs for a given asset. The amount deposited by each user will be tracked using individual LP addresses.

  2. Total Notional Value tracks the amount of maximum liquidity that is available to be transacted for a given liquidity pool.

  3. Total Locked Liquidity tracks the amount of the Total Notional Value that is being used by LTs. This liquidity needs to be managed in real time because it’s backing all open LT positions.

Note: Since LP pools will carry multiple option inventories, it’s computationally difficult to manipulate an array of positions if it were stored in smart contracts. Opus believes it will be simpler to supply and manage the positions off-chain at OpusARM and have the smart contract loop through the inventory for position and liquidity management.
