Mori Finance (MORI)

Mori Finance is an options protocol on Solana that targets long-tail Solana tokens with no options market at all. It grew out of the team behind Yomi Games, a Web3 game studio that raised $2M in seed funding from Hypersphere Ventures, Infinity Ventures Crypto, and others.

Mori protocol lets users sell covered calls and get paid a USDC premium upfront on SOL, cbBTC, PENGU and jitoSOL, with plans to add GRASS, JUP, MET, ORCA, cash-secured puts, and PUMP and HYPE options. Users pick a token, an expiry date, and a strike, which is the price the token will be sold at when the option expires.

If the price is below the strike at the 8:00 UTC expiry, the user keeps the tokens. If it’s above, they’re sold at the strike. Once a position is opened, the tokens are locked and can’t be withdrawn before expiry. In other words, users cap their potential upside on an asset and, in return, get a USDC premium, which partly offsets losses if the asset drops in value.

To make this work, the Mori Solana platform built a hybrid CeDeFi setup. Users interact on Solana, while trades are executed through Mori’s own OTC account with a single Kraken-backed options market maker. However, as of November 2026, the project is still at an early stage of development, using an institutional custodian instead of smart contracts.

According to its MetaDAO page, the Mori crypto project processed $1.7M in options volume in October 2026.

🪙 Mori Finance token: $MORI is a native Mori Finance token used for ownership and governance purposes, with no product-related token utilities offered.

Throughout November 9–13, 2026, the Mori crypto project runs a $MORI ICO, aiming to raise $250K at $645K FDV. The launchpad gives bigger allocations for early deposits and for a higher Ownership Score.

The sale covers 38.76% of the supply, liquidity gets 11.24%, and 50% goes to a founder performance package and a 540d cliff.

Considering the current Mori Finance token distribution model, there is going to be no confirmed Mori Finance airdrop or even points program.
