Permissionless Pools: LPs can permissionlessly deploy pools for the assets, expiration dates, and strike prices of their choosing.

What are DeFi Options? | Decentralised Options

💡 In this article, you will learn about:

Understanding Options

1. Call Options: Call options grant their holder the right to buy an asset at a specified price and date.

2. Put Options: Put options grant their holder the right to sell an asset at a specified price and date.

Call Options

Buying a call option is similar to paying upfront for a table at a restaurant, since even though you've secured the table, you only lose what you paid for the reservation if you decide not to go.

Put Options

Buying a put option is similar to paying upfront for insurance, since you're protected if something happens to your house.

What Are Options Useful For?

1. Leverage: Options allow traders to control a larger amount of an asset with a relatively small initial investment, potentially amplifying gains but also increasing potential loss.

2. Risk Management: Options can be used to provide some protection to your existing holdings and positions without having to sell your assets.

3. Income Generation: Investors can use different options strategies to generate additional income from their existing holdings. In DeFi, users can deposit into strategy vaults or liquidity pools to earn income from options without directly trading them.

4. Speculation: Traders can use options to speculate on the future price movements of the underlying asset, potentially profiting from both upward and downward market movements.
