## What Makes Premia (PREMIA) Unique?

Premia is unique in that it is built on a DeFi-native options architecture.

This features market-sensitive pricing to allow for fair pricing based on supply and demand. It also uses a continuous [on-chain](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/on-chain) reinforcement learning algorithm to achieve crowd-sourced pricing, so that it can hit the target market price and liquidity utilization rate. Finally, it promises capital-efficient markets that even the least liquid tokens can achieve fair market price while using the least amount of capital.

With its strong market-centric mechanisms, PREMIA tokens are distributed to stakeholders based on the size of their position and the economics of capital, driving prices toward market clearing amounts. 

Compared to other peer-to-pool options protocols, Premia stands out because it prices options on market activity to ensure optimal pool utilization and offers risk management to [liquidity providers](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider). \
 \
Premia’s [liquidity pools](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-pool) are unique in that there is selectivity in the markets they overwrite, which deviates from other tokens that overwrite the entire market. The way the liquidity pools are designed allows for lower slippage when the first options are purchased from the pool.  \
 \
In addition, the liquidity pools are designed to strategically give out funds across the base level Put/[Call](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/call-options) pools. These smart pools are entrenched with numerous strategies and dynamic adjustments. Examples of such strategies include shorting volatility for specific assets and options arbitrage between different platforms.

Liquidity pools also feature fair accounting that takes into consideration the duration of time that users and their capital have spent in the pools, such that liquidity is arranged in a first-in first-out sequence.
