## What DRV is

DRV-USD is the governance and utility token of **Derive**, a self-custodial decentralized derivatives exchange offering options, perpetuals, and spot trading. It is an **ERC-20 token on Ethereum** — not a listed company, equity, ETF, or security — so there are no company filings, quarterly earnings, or share fundamentals.
