On-chain hedging involves using decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and digital assets to mitigate price risk directly on a blockchain. This strategy employs various financial instruments, such as perpetual swaps, options, or stablecoins, to protect against adverse price movements of other digital assets. It offers transparent and immutable risk management solutions.
