XEON Mission
{ Problem }
{ 01 }
Cutting-edge tools for unlocking liquidity cater mainly to Majors, neglecting the significant potential of volatile ERC-20 tokens. Current platforms are rigid and uninspiring, limiting flexibility and user engagement.
{ Mission }
{ 02 }
We are on a mission to build an investor-focused ecosystem of DeFi tools that support liquidity unlocking and risk management for any token on every blockchain.
Ecosystem Tools
Xeon’s Ecosystem compromises 4 platforms:
{ Neon Lend },
{ Neon Hedge
}
{ Neon Swaps
}
& { Neon Farm
}
Pioneering these cutting-edge OTC tools:

Capo holds 100 BITCOIN tokens. He's in profit but he doubt's it will keep going up. He wants to lock in is profits. He writes a Call Option using his BITCOIN as collateral.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 01 }
Capo deposits 100 BITCOIN tokens. Valued at $10 per token.
He writes an OTC Call Option: Collateral, 100 BITCOIN tokens, Valued at $1000, Cost $200, Strike Price $12, Duration 30 Days.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 02 }
Saylor, thinks BITCOIN price will be over $12. He deposits the cost of $200 as cost or premium, and buys the Call Option from Capo.
Saylor guarantees Capos BITCOIN at a value of $1000 for the duration of the deal, if price goes over $12 per token.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 03 }
During the 30 days, BITCOIN price soars to $20, a gross profit of $800 for Saylor. But Capo pockets the premium paid by Saylor of $200.
Saylor chooses to exercise the Call Option. He takes the profit only, which is the collateral's current market value $2000 minus the agreed strike value $1200 i.e. $800 profit.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 04 }
Settlement is paid BITCOIN to Capo. The remaining collateral is returned to Saylor.
The deal is closed when Saylor chooses to exercise the option. Had the price of BITCOIN fell to $5 per token; Saylor would only lose $200 to Capo. The cost is the maximum loss Saylor is exposed to no matter the drop in price.

Trade Settlement
{ 04 }
Mike holds Vela. Hes uncertain on price direction the coming week and wants to transfer full gains or losses on his Vela portolio to someone else for the period. He creates an Equity Swap using his Vela as underlying assets for 1 week.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 01 }
Mike deposits 1000 VELA tokens in the contract as the underlying asset and collateral for the Swap.
Vela is worth $10 so the swap is worth $1000, expiry 7 days time, and he priced the Swap at $100 for buyers.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 02 }
Saylor, thinks VELA price will go over $10 in 7 days. He deposits collateral $1000 in paired currency.
Saylor buys the Equity Swap with a nortional of $1000; he agrees to take the risk (gains or losses) on Mike's tokens for 7 days.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 03 }
At the end of the month, VELA price increased to $20.
Saylor found himself in huge profits; all gains accrued in token value are now Saylor's. Current value of Mike's tokens is $2000 and Saylor guaranteed her at $1000 total value/notional.
{ Trade Scenario }
{ 04 }
Settlement paid in quote or paired token.
Mike pays $900 in underlying tokens, stables or WETH to Saylor. The Swap is now closed between Alice and Saylor. If the price had fallen to $5 per token, Mike's bags would be worth $500. Saylor would have to pay the difference; $1000 - $500 (current value) to Mike.

Alex needs liquidity but does not want to sell his GPU tokens. He decides to take a crypto loan using his tokens as collateral.
{ Loan Scenario}
{ 01 }
Alex deposits 1000 GPU tokens as collateral.
He requests to borrow 500 USDT at an interest rate of 5% over 30 days.

Bob earns interest while Alex gets the liquidity he needs without selling his GPU tokens.
{ Loan Scenario}
{ 03 }
At the end of the loan term, Alex repays 525 USDT (principal + interest).
If Alex defaults, Bob can claim his total repayment due from the 1000 GPU collateral deposited by Alex. Any remaining collateral is returned to Alex.
{ Loan Scenario}
{ 04 }
Loan settlement ensures Bob receives the agreed interest.
If Alex's GPU collateral decreases in value below the loan amount, Bob can liquidate all of Alex's collateral.
