Nice episode Stephan. 👍

One part that wasn't 100% clear to me is around the counterparty risk associated with the premiums collected from the market maker - Calypso?

When I sell a covered call option on Atomic Finance, where does the premium that the buyer pays me go? Is it locked in the DLC along with the collateral, or is it held somewhere else?
