What is A.T.M. ($ATM)?
A.T.M. by BaseVol is your onchain Morgan St(AI)nley.
It is an Autonomous Trading Machine designed to democratize 0DTE options trading and intelligent yield generation for everyone.
Built by the Base Batches-winning BaseVol team and powered by their onchain options infrastructure, A.T.M. agents:
Manage options strategy vaults
Automate leveraged and delta-neutral trades
Source real-time alpha across markets
Deliver institutional-grade execution through autonomous agents
From ultra-high APY vaults to seamless agentic execution, $ATM gives users direct exposure to the agent-powered future of finance, where every vault is self-managed and every trade is optimized.
A.T.M. is a specialized agent product line built on top of the BaseVol stack. It is not a platform-wide governance token, but a focused, high-yield subprotocol within the BaseVol ecosystem.
The $ATM Flywheel Explained
$ATM is designed to capture and amplify value created by the Genesis Vault, a 0DTE options-selling strategy built on BaseVol.
How the Flywheel Works
Users hold and stake $ATM to unlock full Genesis Vault benefits
Genesis Vault TVL grows
Vaults generate more value through options strategies
A portion of management and performance attributions may flow back into the $ATM ecosystem
$ATM demand and utility increase
The flywheel accelerates
Additional mechanisms like mindshare rewards, leaderboard recognition, and incentive campaigns further reinforce this loop over time.
The result is a self-reinforcing system where vault performance, user participation, and token utility compound together.

Solid mechancis on the flywheel design. The first 100 trader split structure is smart for building initial liquidity, but the volume-based proportional distribution will probaby be dominated by a few whales. I like that stakers get rewarded seperately tho, creates a nice balance between trading activity and long-term holding. The 2x Gems during campaign is a clever way to layer incentives.
