Excited to continue helping find good protocols access perpetual markets via Perpetual protocol
Impossible is a decentralized incubator, launchpad, and spot swap, so we’re well positioned to help share data and insight from the research we’re already doing in the space to help make sure that assets listed are high quality assets on PERP

Hi to everyone!
I’m Tata Martins and I would like to bring further value to the Perp Protocol project.
To say that I am enthusiastic about crypto is an understatement, in particular for this project which far surpasses all other projects with the main object of perpetual trading.
I entered the world of cryptocurrencies in 2017 while studying Economics, Finance and Statistics. In the last 2 years I have established relationships with several people including some who work for the main CEX and DEX. I worked in an Italian VC where I had the opportunity to learn a lot and delve into some deeper aspects of this world. In the meantime, I have created communities where I spread news and we discuss about every aspect of crypto projects, and of course one of the goal is to facilitate the understanding of English texts.
One of the most cool project where I worked was Autofarm (aggregator), where I had different weeks call to decide different thing for example from deciding which pools to add to how to improve engagement.
I would be really happy to have this chance to work for Perp.
Thanks
Pitch: I’m a mod/perpvangelist for Perp. I’m from the UK (GMT + 01:00) and an active trader and user of Perp V2. I understand the protocol comprehensively and would like to be considered for nomination to the Token Listing DAO.
With the help of the other sub-DAO members, I aim to build a full risk-framework during my tenure as part of the Token Listing DAO. The risk framework will borrow from elements brought forward by Aave + OpenZeppelin as part of their due diligence to analyze risk for listed collateral markets (example of DPI’s risk assessment).
Examples of risk assessment parameters for token listings could include:
Liquidity across centralized/decentralized exchanges
Aggregate volume
Volatility
Maturity (time since token deploy/initial market listing)
Inflation/deflation and any risks that lie therein (e.g., reflexivity spiral of Luna Classic)
There also needs to be a ‘fruitful’ relationship with LPs, as ultimately the depth for markets (and by association, volume) depends on how effectively the protocol is able to attract LPs. To incentivize LPs to market make newly listed markets, it is suggested to work closely with the content team + content Perpvangelists to provide content on utilising different LP strategies.
