QuantAMM

QuantAMM operates as a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, established in 2022 by Christian Harrington and Matthew Willetts. The company is focused on providing on-chain asset management infrastructure. A significant milestone was achieved in April 2024, when QuantAMM secured $1.85 million in a pre-seed funding round with participation from investors like 8VC, Mako, Marshland Capital, and 369 Capital. This followed the completion of the Longhash and Hypernest accelerator programs.

The core of QuantAMM's offering is a new category of DeFi products known as Blockchain Traded Funds (BTFs). These are designed to function as dynamically managed, on-chain smart pools. For instance, their Safe Haven BTF combines wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC), tokenized gold (PAXG), and the stablecoin USDC. This structure aims to provide diversified exposure and a balanced risk profile for both individual and institutional investors. The platform's technology, Temporal Function Market Making (TFMM), is utilized as the rebalancing mechanism for on-chain quantitative asset management, which reduces slippage and rebalancing overhead. This allows for continuous, automatic, and fully on-chain daily rebalancing.

The business model is centered on providing these non-custodial tradable funds, which allows users to retain access to and withdraw their funds at any time. A key feature is the absence of streaming maintenance fees, which can enhance potential returns for users. QuantAMM's product lineup is available to DeFi users in permitted regions and also includes tailored solutions for family office portfolios and institutional asset reference tokens. The company launched its V1 on the Ethereum mainnet and Layer 2 solutions in the second quarter of 2024, with plans to expand its offerings to include cross-chain solutions. The platform serves a market seeking to capitalize on price volatility while earning fees and yield, moving beyond traditional liquidity providing.
