SSOV

Please familiarize yourself with SSOVs and Option Fundamentals before attempting to use this walkthrough.

With our new Calls as Incentives update, you must stake your position after depositing to earn rewards. Additionally, make sure to claim your rewards before withdrawing your deposit or your associated rewards will be lost.

Quick Access:

Accessing the SSOV
