Derive V1

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.

TVL counts the option market locked synth value, along with USDC in safety module.

If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.

Derive V1 is published as a versioned release inside the Derive protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Derive V1 is a Options protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed across 3 chains, including Optimism, Ethereum, Arbitrum. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file). DeFiLlama tracks 6 historical events for this protocol since 2021.

Derive V1 operates on 3 networks (Optimism, Ethereum, Arbitrum), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Optimism, Ethereum, Arbitrum), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Price discovery relies on 2 oracle providers (Chainlink, Pyth), which diversifies the data-feed surface but also expands the set of third parties users implicitly trust. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts.
