Funding drives perps, but it’s invisible

2025

Problem

TheBasis.fi

  • Funding is volatile, unpredictable, and critical for both traders and vaults.
  • Builders like Liminal/Hyperbeat rely on funding, but they can’t hedge it.
  • Traders can speculate on price, but can’t directly speculate or hedge on funding rates.
  • Oracles today only update hourly → too slow for live risk management.

We integrated Pyth price feeds (BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE) via Hermes

Solution

TheBasis.fi

Built a PythOracleAdapter that computes real-time funding rates instead of hourly lags.

Pushed these rates into HIP-3 markets → so now you can trade HYPE Funding Perp, BTC Funding Perp, ETH Funding Perp.

Traders can:

  • Speculate: bet funding stays positive or flips negative.
  • Hedge: lock in their funding exposure like interest rate swaps.
  • Tagline: “BasisX turns funding into a tradable market.”

How it works

Real-time oracle

Sub-second funding

Tradable funding

TheBasis.fi

Built with Pyth feeds (BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE) delivering live market data.

Replaces the old 1-hour delay with continuous, real-time funding rate calculation.

HIP-3 markets launch perps on funding itself so traders can hedge or speculate directly.

Unique Features and Moats

TheBasis.fi

  • Data flow: Pyth → Hermes API → PythOracleAdapter → funding calculation → HIP-3 market.
  • On-chain algorithm: computes price momentum & volatility → updates cumulative funding sub-second.
  • Markets: Each token gets its own HIP-3 funding perp (HYPEFRX, BTCFRX, etc.).

Innovation:

  • Multi-asset aggregation
  • Sub-second updates
  • First HIP-3 markets on funding rates
