Rain is a decentralized options protocol operating on the Arbitrum network. It provides a permissionless framework that allows anyone to create and trade custom markets without restrictions, supporting both prediction and options trading. The protocol distinguishes between public and private markets. Public markets rely on Olympus AI's oracle agent to determine outcomes, while private markets permit creators to serve as resolvers themselves. Rain also facilitates secondary trading of positions and incorporates account abstraction to streamline the user experience. Its native token, $RAIN, operates within a deflationary model in which a portion of trading volume is directed toward buying and burning tokens, gradually reducing the total supply. Governance of the protocol is managed by token holders through a decentralized autonomous organization, giving the community direct influence over protocol decisions and future development.
The headline number is RAIN's $666.66M cliff on Monday, but the unlock calendar runs through smaller-tier cliffs that cumulatively exceed $830M and will test bid-side liquidity across mid-cap names.
Seven projects see supply events this month, but the number that actually moves tape is RAIN's $713.6M cliff — roughly the size of SPK's entire free float, set loose in a single unlock.
May's schedule is front-loaded with two outsized cliffs — RAIN's first post-vesting tranche and PYTH's 37%-of-cap annual release — with five smaller monthly unlocks filling out the calendar.
