Bitcoin plays a significant role in the world of cryptocurrencies not only because of its market value but also its advanced maturity and complexity. It has attracted the attention of institutional and experienced investors due to the numerous financial products available.

Options, a financial product in the Bitcoin market, have become a crucial tool for investors. These contracts give buyers the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell Bitcoin at a set price before the contract expires.

Investors have found options to be versatile, serving as a hedge against market unpredictability and a way to take advantage of price forecasts. This flexibility has made options trading a sophisticated approach for investors to control their risk and exposure in a highly volatile market.
