Aevo

76M Tokens Burned & The Supply keeps Shrinking 🔥

Token buyback and burn programs have become one of the clearest signals of protocol health in DeFi. $BNB and $UNI have both used supply reduction mechanics to align token value with platform growth
.
Aevo's AGP-3 buyback and burn is funded entirely by real exchange trading fees. This month, another 1,000,000 AEVO was permanently removed from circulation, bringing the total to 76M burned to date.

7.6% of the total supply gone for good.

The burn is monthly and recurring, and supply trends down as platform volume grows.

Collateral Can Work Between Trades 🧠

For any trader, whether a $BTC or a $HYPE trader, collateral is part of the portfolio too, that's why Aevo’s aeUSD is a yield-bearing wrapper around sDAI through Spark.

It carries the same collateral factor as USDC while continuing to earn yield as it backs open trades, allowing the collateral layer to remain productive while positions are managed from the same account.

Options and perpetual futures draw from one collateral pool, with portfolio margin available above 5k in account equity.

The result is a derivatives account where capital can support positions and generate yield at the same time.

Capital efficiency begins with the collateral underneath every trade 🔥

Defined Risk Starts Before Entry 🧠

DeFi traders often reach for a naked perp when they have a directional view on $SOL markets, and the same instinct carries into $HYPE markets even when the acceptable loss has not been defined.

A naked perp can be liquidated before the expected move arrives, but buying an option changes that risk structure because the buyer’s maximum loss is limited to the premium paid upfront.

Easy Mode on Aevo makes that choice accessible without requiring traders to navigate the full options chain.

Every position still settles as a real call or put, while Pro Mode remains one toggle away for traders who want full control.

Directional exposure becomes easier to manage when the cost of being wrong is known before entry 👀

RWA markets with real hedge capability? 👀

Real-world assets issued by $ONDO have been live on Aevo since spot markets launched earlier this month, and two of them, $TSLAon and HOODon, have both moved meaningfully since.

That movement is exactly why the account matters here.

Traders holding either asset have had the option to hedge that exposure with the matching perp the entire time, long the spot asset, short the perp, both legs live from the same account.

This isn't about predicting where TSLA or HOOD go next, it's about not having to choose between holding a real-world asset and having a plan for what happens if the market turns against it.

All of it, the asset, the perp, and everything else you're already trading, sits in one account 🔥

PERPS+ Now Covers HYPE 📊

Going long or short on $HYPE with a naked perp means full exposure, nothing more, nothing less. If the market turns against you, there's no built-in way to define how much that costs before it happens.

PERPS+ already gave $BTC and $ETH perp traders three ways to change that, and now HYPE joins them: cap what you're willing to lose, get paid upfront to hold your position, or set your best and worst case before you even enter, whichever fits how you want to trade.

Still a perp, but now with an options edge and no options knowledge required.

Every position still earns the full rewards package, the same as any other trade on Aevo 🔥

The Worst Feeling In Trading 📊

Getting stopped out on a wick right before the move you called finally plays out is one of the worst feelings in trading.

Naked perps have always carried that risk.

That's exactly what PERPS+ was built to fix for $BTC and $ETH perp traders. Cap the downside, collect a premium upfront, or lock in both a best and worst case, all without ever leaving the perp you already know how to trade.

No options chain, no strike selection, just outcomes attached to the position you're already running, and every one of those positions still earns rewards the same as before.

Soon, PERPS+ reaches a new asset.

This week's Rewards epoch is now live.

Last week, 1,000,000 $AEVO was distributed to our traders across perps and options markets like $BTC and $HYPE this week the same pool resets and the clock starts again.

700,000 AEVO goes to our major crypto perpetual futures markets, and 300,000 AEVO goes to our options markets.

This weekly epoch reward is one of three separate reward streams on Aevo (weekly AEVO epoch, weekly USDC cashback, and the year-end USDC distribution).

Every trade counts toward all three.

Trading the moment with the right tools 🧠

Bitcoin surged over 20% this week, climbing to near 78k in one of its sharpest weekly moves in years.

$ETH and $HYPE didn't lag behind, both posting strong gains of their own, and alts across the board caught the same bid.

Weeks like this usually leave traders picking between two blunt choices: chase the move with a naked perp and carry the liquidation risk the whole way up, or watch from the sidelines and let it pass.

Neither has to be the choice. A defined-risk option lets you take the same view with your downside fixed before you enter. PERPS+ gives you that same protection without ever opening an options screen. Or you run the perp directly, if that's the cleanest expression of the view.

All three live in the same account, alongside whatever else you're already holding, and every one of those trades earns rewards on top of the position itself.

That's what one account built for a week like this is for.

Options Do Something No Perp Can 📊

$BTC and $ETH perp traders understand leverage, liquidation, and funding rates. Most have never made an options trade, not because they lack the skill, but because the interface always looked like a second exam.

Options break a symmetry perps cannot: a long call or put carries unlimited upside and a fixed downside. The max loss is the premium paid, known before entry, and not subject to liquidation. A perp in the same direction profits and loses in equal measure with no floor.

There is also a second direction that perps do not offer: a trader who expects price to stay range-bound can sell premium: collect payment upfront and profit if the view holds. That trade does not exist in the perpetual market.

Options Easy Mode is now live on Aevo to make the entry of perp traders to options easier.

The instrument was always capable, and Easy Mode is what made it accessible.

One instrument perp traders keep avoiding 👀

$HYPE and $ETH perp traders dominate crypto derivatives volume. The instrument they consistently avoid is options, not because options are less powerful, but because the interface has always made them feel that way.

Options break a symmetry perps cannot.

A long call or put carries unlimited upside and a fixed downside. The max loss is the premium paid, known before entry, and not subject to liquidation. A perp in the same direction profits and loses in equal measure with no floor.

There is also a direction perps do not offer at all. A trader who expects price to stay range-bound can sell premium: collect payment upfront and profit if the view holds. That trade does not exist in the perpetual market.

Options have been live on Aevo for years. The only thing standing between most perp traders and their first options trade has been the interface.

808,800 Projected USDC For Active Traders 👀

Most yield programs in crypto reward deposits and holding, while the traders generating real volume on $BTC and $ETH markets rarely see any of that value returned to them.

Aevo runs a year-end distribution funded by protocol revenue from Uniswap V3 LP fees, with 808,800 USDC projected for 2026, distributed to traders who hold a COMMANDER or LEGEND stake and build 10 million in cumulative trading volume since January 1.

Every perp and options trade counts toward that threshold.

The leaderboard launched a month ago, and the year-end snapshot is the deadline 🔥

76 million AEVO burned and counting 🔥

$BNB established the buyback and burn model as one of the most recognized value accrual mechanisms in crypto; $MKR followed with its own version. The thesis is straightforward: when a protocol generates real revenue, it can use that revenue to reduce supply permanently.

Aevo has been running the same mechanism.

Every trade on the platform generates fees, and a portion of those fees funds a monthly AEVO buyback and burn, with 76 million tokens now removed from circulation to date, 7.6% of total supply, gone permanently.

The fee surface just got significantly larger with crypto perps, options, and equity perps already generating volume on the platform, and every product expansion is another source of burn fuel.

The supply keeps shrinking as the platform keeps growing.

Most Traders Pick One Market And Stay 📊

$SOL and $PUMP traders stay in crypto, while equity traders stay in stocks; the two worlds run on different infrastructure, different platforms, and different schedules.

That separation comes with a cost.

A move in NVDA that a crypto trader spots early still requires leaving the ecosystem, opening a brokerage, and waiting for market hours. By the time the trade is on, the window is often gone.

That divide is closing everywhere now, and six tokenized RWA equity spot markets have already gone live on Aevo. Each sits in the same account as your crypto perps, equity perps, and options.

A trader who sees NVDA run on an AI catalyst can now act on it from the same place they manage everything else. The friction of choosing a market is the last thing a trader should be managing 🌟

Crypto traders shouldn't miss TradFi trades 👀

Every time SPY breaks a record or NVDA runs on an AI catalyst, the same thing happens: $BTC and $ETH traders watch from the sidelines. Getting exposure meant leaving the ecosystem, opening a brokerage account, or skipping it entirely.

Six tokenized equity markets are now live on Aevo: SPYon, NVDAon, TSLAon, QQQon, GOOGLon, and HOODon. Each backed one-to-one by the underlying, trading around the clock, from the same account as your perps and options.

While stocks move, the onchain version moves with them 🌟

Why Perp Traders Never Switched To Options 👀

Crypto options volume has been growing steadily across the category, with $BTC and $ETH options markets seeing consistent volume growth in 2026 as more traders look for ways to trade with defined downside rather than naked exposure.

But most perp traders have never actually used an option.

The instrument promises exactly what they want: capped downside, unlimited upside, no funding bleed on a ranging position. The barrier has never been the demand. It has always been the interface.

Open an options chain and you meet strikes, expiries, implied volatility, and Greeks before you can place a single trade. Most perp traders close the tab and go back to what they know.

That gap between what options offer and what the interface delivers is the problem the market has not solved yet.

On Aevo, it is about to be.

One Account For Crypto And Stocks 📊

Crypto and equity markets moved in opposite directions for most of 2026, $BTC and broader crypto like $SOL moved slow while equity markets hit record highs. For traders who wanted exposure to both sides, that meant managing two separate accounts on two separate platforms.

Aevo now holds both in one place with spot on six tokenized real-world assets live alongside crypto options and perpetuals in the same cross-margin account.

The account handles offense and defense from the same place.

You can long a tokenized stock by buying it and short the matching perp, running the hedge without moving capital between platforms.

This is the direction Aevo is building toward: one account where a whole portfolio lives.

RWA Still Sitting Idle? 👀

The RWA market has grown steadily, but most tokenized asset holders face the same problem. $ONDO and $LINK have both built infrastructure to bring real-world assets onchain. The assets arrive. Then they sit.

A tokenized stock backed one-to-one by the underlying, settling around the clock, with nowhere to go after purchase. No venue to hedge the exposure, no strategy to run alongside it, no account that treats it as active capital rather than a static balance.

Aevo's RWA spot launch changes that for six assets: NVDAon, TSLAon, SPYon, QQQon, HOODon, and GOOGLon. Each one is now tradeable, bridgeable, and hedgeable inside the same account as crypto options and perps, with zero gas on Aevo Chain.

The idle-holder problem has a straightforward answer: bring the assets somewhere they have a job.

These six RWA markets are live now, and what they unlock next is the direction Aevo is building toward.

RWAs Meet Derivatives Trading 📊

With RWA spot markets now live on Aevo, every single one of them has a matching perp already running, so the traders who use to trade crypto perps like $HYPE and $ETH now have six new assets to build strategies around.

Take QQQon for example, backed one-to-one by the underlying, tradeable around the clock with zero gas. You can go long QQQon spot and short the QQQ perp in the same account. The two legs largely offset the index move, and direction is no longer the main trade. The short perp leg still earns:

Epoch rewards
USDC cashback
Leaderboard tiers

The same setup runs across all six RWA assets now live on Aevo: NVDAon, TSLAon, SPYon, QQQon, HOODon, and GOOGLon.

Both legs in one account, no capital split between platforms.
