PsyOptions

PsyOptions is a decentralized options protocol built on Solana by Mithraic Labs, providing on-chain American-style options contracts originally designed for use with the Serum/OpenBook DEX. Rather than a hosted REST API, it exposes its functionality through open-source on-chain Anchor/BPF programs and first-party TypeScript client libraries (the @mithraic-labs npm scope: psy-american, psyoptions, market-meta, psy-token-registry, psy-metrics) plus a Rust crate. The project has since been sunset: its documentation and marketing sites are shut down, though the GitHub repositories and published packages remain available for reference. It was surfaced as a portfolio company of Pantera Capital. Sector: crypto / DeFi.

PsyOptions is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto, DeFi, Solana, and Options.

PsyOptions’ developer surface includes documentation and 8 more developer resources.
