As such, the Hegic model incorporates aspects from traditional finance with crypto options trading to increase its functionality.Liquidity pools also form a key component of the Hegic Platform. These are designed especially to gather and accumulate liquidity from many liquidity providers, or writers of hedge contracts, in order to reduce potential risk and offer deep liquidity. Hegic liquidity pools are non-custodial, which means that no third party has access to funds except for the holders who have purchased the hedge contract.Hegic’s native token is known as HEGIC, it is a utility token.
