A crypto options contract is a derivative instrument where the buyer or the holder isn’t obligated to execute the trade. So crypto options traders have the right to either buy or sell the crypto asset at a fixed price with an expiry date, but they are not bound to do this.

Crypto options contracts are derivatives that let you speculate on the future of the underlying crypto like Bitcoin. The two kinds of crypto options contracts are call options that give buyers the right (but not an obligation) to buy a crypto asset at a fixed price on a set expiry date, and put options that give the buyer the right (but not the obligation) to sell the underlying crypto at a fixed price on the date of expiry. Delta Exchange is an options trading exchange for BTC, ETH, SOL, BNB and 50+ altcoins. You can trade call and put options with daily expiries on Delta for the lowest settlement fees and fastest withdrawals.

For traders and investors, crypto derivatives offer several benefits that are unavailable in spot crypto trading. These include: (a) ability to go both long and short, i.e. profit from both rising and falling market, (b) leverage trading which enables a trader to take bigger positions and (c) strong liquidity which reduces the crypto trading charges.

There are largely three categories of crypto derivative use-cases. These are: (a) hedging: Which is essentially insurance for adverse price movements of a crypto asset you already own. For e.g. miners may want to lock-in the price of mined Bitcoin without selling it, (b) speculation: traders employ cryptocurrency derivatives to create leveraged pay-off profiles based on their market view, and (c) access: traders that are not able to buy Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies directly could potentially gain exposure to them via derivatives on a crypto trading platform or a cryptocurrency derivatives exchange.

The prominent types of cryptocurrency derivative contracts include futures, options, contracts for difference (CFD), perpetual swaps and swaps. Crypto derivative contracts are traded both on exchanges and over the counter (OTC). Exchange traded derivatives are standardized contracts and are typically very liquid. In contrast, OTC derivatives are bespoke contracts between two parties.

A derivative is a class of financial contracts that derive their value from the performance of an underlying entity. Derivatives where this underlying is a cryptocurrency or a cryptoasset, e.g. Bitcoin, Ether etc are known as cryptocurrency derivatives. Trading of crypto derivatives does not entail actual buying or selling of bitcoins or any other crypto. The value of the crypto derivative contract changes with the change in price of the underlying cryptocurrency. Thus, trading crypto derivatives in an alternative way to get exposure to an underlying cryptoasset or cryptocurrency.

Step 2: For going long: use the borrowed money to buy crypto. For going short: sell the borrowed cryptoasset. In contrast, futures contracts have both these features built in their design.

Either Crypto futures and margin trading can be used if a trader is looking for leverage and the ability to go both long and short in cryptocurrency trading.

Bitcoin Futures and Other Cryptocurrency Futures

When two parties enter into a futures contract, they agree to buy/ sell an asset or security at a pre-fixed price on a selected date in the future. Crypto futures have Bitcoin or altcoins (e.g. BNB, LEO, Stellar Lumens) as the underlying.

The price of a crypto futures changes linearly with the price of the underlying cryptocurrency. Consider trading a Bitcoin futures contract. If the Bitcoin price moves up by 10%, ceteris paribus the price of Bitcoin futures will also move by 10%. This feature makes trading Bitcoin futures a good alternative to trading Bitcoin directly. The same applied to futures contracts which have other cryptos like Ether, XRP and Tezos. Moreover, crypto futures come up: (a) in-built leverage, (b) flexibility of going long or shorting and (c) low transaction costs.
