Hegic

Hegic is an on-chain peer-to-pool options trading protocol deployed on Arbitrum, enabling users to trade ETH and WBTC call and put options with AMM mechanics. Liquidity providers fund shared pools and earn premiums, while traders access non-custodial options with on-chain settlement in USDC. Protocol data including option positions, liquidity pool TVL, strike prices, premiums, open interest, and hedge contract analytics are queryable via DefiLlama's public REST API, the Arbiscan token API, and community-maintained Graph Protocol subgraphs.

Hegic publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Accounts API, Contracts API, Fees API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include DeFi, Options Trading, Onchain, Arbitrum, and Ethereum.

Hegic’s developer surface includes authentication, engineering blog, status page, and 9 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
