Introducing Premia Labs
Tools for All Traders.

For the past several months, we’ve been open about the fact that our vision for Premia is evolving. We’ve talked about how the lessons from Premia v1 through v3 shaped what comes next, and how our new platform, Kyan, will take that foundation and build something entirely new for serious onchain traders.
Now, we’re excited to share another piece of that evolution: Premia Labs. This new name and updated branding mark the next chapter for the team behind all of our projects. It signals that we’re not just building one product, but a full suite of tools, designed for different traders and different needs, all under one recognizable ecosystem.
Premia Labs is our new home base. It’s where Kyan, Archetype, and any product carrying the .blue domain come together. And it’s how we stay true to the values that got us here, while giving each platform the freedom to do what it does best.

What Is Premia Labs?
Premia Labs is the next stage of our evolution from a single protocol into a focused builder of specialized trading products. The same team but a broader mission: to create tools for all traders.
Under Premia Labs, we’re launching new products that push the original Premia vision further than ever. We’re giving each of them the freedom to do one thing extremely well, instead of asking one exchange to be everything at once.
And for you, our community, it means more choice and more ways to access advanced trading, manage risk, and use DeFi in a way that fits your strategy.

Why the Shift?
The idea behind Premia Labs is simple: one brand can’t do it all. We’ve learned a lot since launching V1 about how people trade options, what tools they really use, and what keeps them coming back.
Premia v3 showed us that full decentralization can limit performance in ways that clash with the needs of serious traders. It also showed us that there’s still huge demand for simple, trustless DeFi tools.
Premia Labs solves this by branching out our ecosystem. Each product under the .blue domain will carry forward the DNA of Premia, but each will be free to serve its own community and use case.

What’s Coming Next
Soon, Kyan will launch as our next-generation options and perpetuals exchange. It takes everything we learned from building the first fully onchain options exchange and pushes it further: multi-leg strategies, integrated perps, intuitive portfolio margin, and an experience that feels as smooth as a top-tier CEX, but permissionless and transparent at its core.
At the same time, we’re winding down active development on Premia Blue (Premia V3). It’s been an important stepping stone, but it’s time to move forward.
And for traders who want a more traditional DeFi experience, Archetype will remain part of the family too. Archetype is our DeFi aggregator designed for users who want the best pricing, lowest fees, and widest reach across EVM chains, all with no trade-offs on decentralization.
One Vision, Many Products
Along the way, we learned something important: one product can’t do everything well. The DeFi space isn’t one-size-fits-all and the needs of a pro options trader aren’t the same as those of a casual DeFi user swapping tokens across chains.
It’s time to reflect that reality in how we build.
The Premia name has always stood for advanced, transparent tools that give traders real control over their strategies. That vision stays the same, we’re just giving it more room to grow.
Premia Labs ties it all together. Whether you’re trading on Kyan, using Archetype, or exploring new tools under the .blue domain, you’ll know they’re built by the same team that’s been pushing the boundaries of onchain options since day one.
Tools for all traders. That’s our new promise. And we can’t wait to show you what comes next.
