STX Puts → Hedge exposure or profit from pullbacks.
Unlike perpetuals, STX options allow structured strategies with defined downside risk.

PowerTrade lists STX options with 8 expirations, spanning 0DTE (same-day expiry) to 12 months.
Short-term STX options → Capture volatility around ecosystem announcements, governance, or Bitcoin-related news.
