The Bumper protocol officially ceased operations and shut down on December 10, 2025, due to an inability to attract sufficient liquidity. The submission contains highly deceptive claims ('most people have used my product') for a defunct project. While the technical concept of price protection was innovative, the project has failed and the protocol is no longer functional.

Description
Users of protection set a floor price, and if the market crashes, their asset will never fall below that price. Importantly, if the market pumps, their asset rises too.\n\nProtected positions incur an incremental, floating premium based on asset price movements. This in turn is used to incentivise the complementary side of the market wherein stablecoin depositors may supply stablecoin into a liquidity reserve and earn a yield.\n\n
