What Are LDO Options?

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

• LDO Calls → Bullish bets on liquid staking adoption.

• LDO Puts → Hedge holdings or speculate on downside.

Unlike perpetuals, LDO options provide defined downside risk and allow for structured volatility strategies.

---

Expiration Dates Available

PowerTrade lists LDO options with 8 expirations, from 0DTE (same-day expiry) up to 12 months forward.

• Short-term LDO options → Useful for trading volatility around governance proposals or ETH staking inflows.

• Long-term LDO options → Hedge or speculate on liquid staking adoption cycles.
