How we’re helping you
Any questions?
We like clarity as much as you do. Here are a couple of questions our partners asked before working with us.
What are crypto options?
Crypto options are financial derivatives that give the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specific cryptocurrency at a predetermined price on or before a certain date. Like options in traditional financial markets, crypto options come in two types: calls and puts.
A call option allows the buyer to purchase an underlying cryptocurrency at a set price within a specific time frame, while a put option gives the buyer the right to sell at a set price. These options are used for hedging risks, speculating on price movements, and strategic investment planning in the volatile cryptocurrency market.
How to use crypto options?
Crypto options can be used in various ways depending on the investment strategy and risk tolerance. When hedging, holders can use options to protect against price drops in cryptocurrencies they own. For example, buying put options can help offset potential losses in crypto holdings.
When speculating, holders can use options to bet on the future price movement of a cryptocurrency without actually owning it. This approach can potentially lead to high returns with a lower initial investment compared to buying the cryptocurrency outright. Additionally, crypto options are a great tool for income generation by writing (selling) options and collecting the premium from buyers.
