Institutional investors are increasingly applying options trading strategies, traditionally used for Bitcoin, to other cryptocurrencies. This shift aims to optimize the risk-to-reward ratio in altcoin markets. Strategies such as covered calls, short puts, and long calls are becoming prevalent as large holders and teams seek to manage volatility more effectively. The October 10 market crash highlighted liquidation risks, prompting a move towards structured options trading. Asset managers are adopting these tactics to hedge against market unpredictability and enhance returns.
