Something you probably did not know, but Rysk (@ryskfinance) uses HyperLend for on-chain physical option settlement with flash-loans, letting traders execute an in-the-money option even when they’re short on cash at expiry. // In a single transaction you temporarily borrow the needed stablecoins via a flash-loan (from HyperLend), pay the seller to exercise, receive the underlying collateral, immediately swap that collateral on a DEX or OTC desk for stablecoins, repay the flash-loan before the block closes, and keep the leftover profit. Because the loan lives and dies inside one block, you don’t need upfront capital or ongoing credit, the protocol risk is minimal, and the whole flow feels smooth, something traditional finance can’t replicate. The trade-off is a small flash-loan fee and some swap slippage, but that’s usually far cheaper than letting the option lapse worthless, so the new mechanism effectively turns a temporary liquidity crunch into an automated, one-click payoff.
