What Are NEAR Options?

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

• NEAR Calls → Used to capture upside from ecosystem adoption and developer growth.

• NEAR Puts → Used to hedge downside exposure or speculate on bearish cycles.

Unlike perpetual futures, NEAR options allow for defined downside risk and structured multi-leg strategies.

---

Expiration Dates Available

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

• Short-term NEAR options → Ideal for volatility around ecosystem upgrades or token unlocks.

• Longer-term NEAR options → Useful for hedging or positioning for adoption over time.
