Research
A clearer view of decentralized market structure.
Skilt research examines how decentralized markets are actually built: where liquidity lives, how it moves, what participants are doing, and what the structure implies for the institutions operating within it.
The work is empirical. Conclusions are drawn from the same connected record the platform maintains, and they are written to be checked.

Focus
Structure, liquidity, and the entities that move both.
The research program concentrates on four areas where market understanding of decentralized markets is thinnest: liquidity migration, derivatives structure, cross-chain flows, and entity-level behavior. Each connects directly to a live capability in the platform, which keeps the work empirical and the platform honest.
Research is published as it is completed, not on a calendar. Teams with access receive work directly; selected pieces are published here.
