#About Exolane

Exolane is a non-custodial perpetuals protocol built for safety-conscious traders. Core logic runs on smart contracts, withdrawals are not subject to an admin pause, and trading costs are designed to stay transparent and more predictable through capped funding.

This documentation covers how the protocol works, what it costs, and what risks are involved.
