⊃ Trustless Smart Contracts
HootDex derivatives are powered by autonomous smart contracts deployed on the Pecu Novus Blockchain, which means trades are executed and settled without any third-party intermediaries. This eliminates counterparty risk, human error, and delays often found in centralized platforms. Smart contracts handle:
⊇ Position creation
⊇ Margin enforcement
⊇ Funding rate settlements
⊇ Expiration or perpetual rollover
⊇ Automated liquidation if collateral thresholds are breached
Even though there are no expirations on Perpetual tokens, the ability to offer tokens with expiration dates on a peer to peer level in the future is possible. This level of automation ensures transparency, predictability, and faster transaction cycles for traders globally.
