About Avantis: A Powerful New Star in the DeFi Derivatives Space
Avantis is an innovative decentralized finance (DeFi) platform focused on the Base ecosystem, dedicated to providing users with efficient and secure on-chain derivatives trading services. It allows users to trade perpetual futures on a range of assets, including cryptocurrencies and commodities.

This further highlights its immense potential in the Web3 space. Furthermore, Avantis has partnered with KuCoin Web3 to build a universal leverage layer, injecting new momentum into its ecosystem development.
