The only L2 with a native liquidity layer for hyper-scaling derivatives, Polynomial, has further enhanced its capabilities by integrating SOCKET Protocol’s Chain Abstraction.

This allows users to deposit and withdraw from any chain with zero bridging fees, creating a seamless user experience.

Unlocking High Yields and Simplified Onboarding

Polynomial enables users to stake and trade with groundbreaking features:

• Staking: By staking, users act as counterparties for trading, earning up to 60% Net APR yield, primarily through OP Rewards. With SOCKET, users can onboard and stake assets like USDC from any chain in a single transaction, eliminating the need for separate bridging steps and significantly improving the user experience.

• Trading: Polynomial offers trading with up to 50x leverage. Formerly a top DEX on Optimism with over $4 billion in volume last year, Polynomial has now transitioned to its own chain, achieving $130 million in volume to date. Thanks to SOCKET, users can deposit margins from any chain with the same ease as before.

Delivering a CEX-Like Experience Onchain

Polynomial leverages SOCKET’s Chain Abstraction to ensure a consistent and user-friendly experience across its ecosystem. Here’s a short demo:

Key Features

Polynomial Chain offers zero bridging fees and maximized yields by building on SOCKET, enabling effortless access to liquidity from any chain while enhancing profitability by eliminating bridging fees.

As an L2 built to hyperscale onchain derivatives trading, Polynomial Chain addresses DeFi’s scalability and liquidity challenges through ultra-fast settlements and unified liquidity pools.

Powered by the OP Stack, Polynomial Chain leverages the robust infrastructure of the Optimism Superchain, benefiting from reduced gas fees, faster transaction finality, enhanced scalability, and robust security through Ethereum’s mainnet.

Unified Framework for Seamless Trading

Polynomial Chain integrates liquidity, abstraction, and settlement into a single framework:

Liquidity Layer

A unified pool of liquidity powers multiple financial products, such as perpetual swaps and prediction markets. This ensures:

• Deep onchain liquidity.

• Minimal slippage.

• Optimized capital efficiency.

Abstraction Layer

By simplifying complex blockchain operations, Polynomial’s abstraction layer delivers:

• A user-friendly interface akin to centralized exchanges.

• Streamlined account management via account abstraction.

Settlement Layer

Supports hybrid data submissions both onchain and off-chain, ensuring flexibility and efficiency.

What’s Next for Polynomial?

Polynomial is set to introduce cross-margin functionality, enabling users to use assets like ETH or BTC as collateral for perpetual trading. While still in the early stages of chain abstraction, further enhancements are in the pipeline.

Empowering App Chains

Polynomial Chain’s integration is part of SOCKET’s larger vision: empowering app chains with the tools they need to deliver seamless user experiences.

Chain abstraction is a cornerstone of this vision, enabling developers to focus on building intuitive apps while SOCKET handles the complexity of onchain interactions.

We believe this is the next wave of adoption—where app chains thrive and users win.
