About Mecone
Summary
Mecone builds index infrastructure that lets perpetual futures exchanges list contracts on frontier assets, such as fine art, real estate, rare earth metals, and pre-IPO companies, that currently have no derivatives market. Its core methodology aggregates real-time prediction market data to produce continuously updating price indices for these assets. The near-term product is a licensed index; the longer-term plan is a U.S.-based perpetual futures exchange dedicated to frontier assets.
Business model
License fees paid by perpetual futures exchanges for access to Mecone's frontier-asset indices
Go-to-market
Perpetual futures exchanges are the initial customer, acquiring the indices through a licensing arrangement to expand the asset classes available to their traders.
