Heyo! My name is Robert Leifke. I am working on Numo, a protocol for creating options on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. It's implementation is inspired by the paper, Replicating Market Makers.
Why options? A financial system serves to transfer risk between buyers that want more and sellers that want less of it. This happens through options.
With Numo I hope to create a unified marketplace for risk that is globally accessible without intermediaries. I believe it will make finance more useful.
For now, I'm on a leave of absence from the University of Michigan where I'm majoring in Mathematics. My research interests are in Constant Function Market Makers and Graph Algorithms.
If you’re working on decentralized finance protocols or just want to chat my twitter is @robertleifke.
