What Are API3 Options?

API3 options are derivatives that give traders the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell API3 at a chosen strike price before expiry.

• API3 Calls → Position for upside potential in decentralized oracle adoption.

• API3 Puts → Hedge downside or profit from corrections in oracle markets.

Unlike perpetual futures, API3 options let traders manage volatility with defined downside risk.

• Short-term API3 options → Useful for reacting to oracle ecosystem updates or DeFi adoption.
