oHYDX is the rewards token earned through Hydrex participation. It is not liquid on its own but gives users two ways to convert it into value. This system ensures HYDX supply expands only when users take real action, protecting against inflation and short-term farming.
Redeem for Liquid HYDX Users can redeem oHYDX by supplying at least 1 USDC per token. The USDC is placed into a rehypothecated liquidity pool that backs all circulating HYDX with real capital. This preserves a hard price floor and allows Hydrex to scale safely. Redemption cost may increase when HYDX trades above peg.
Convert to Permalocked HYDX Users can also burn oHYDX to create a permalocked veNFT. This requires no additional capital and gives access to protocol rewards and governance. It is ideal for users who want long-term exposure without needing liquidity.
Every HYDX in circulation has a of at least 1 USDC. oHYDX creates a buffer between protocol emissions and market supply, giving users a choice and keeping the system healthy. Capital used for redemptions stays in protocol-controlled pools, supporting rewards, routing, and deep liquidity.
oHYDX rewards commitment, not extraction.
