Binance, a cryptocurrency exchange, has announced the launch of BNBUSDT and SOLUSDT Monthly Options on November 26, 2024, at 8:00 a.m. UTC. These European-style options will let contract holders use the contracts only when they expire. Binance has taken this new approach to meet market needs even after following regulatory requirements.
The exchange explained that general users can buy and sell these options. However it will only allow liquidity providers and qualified clients to write or sell them. New expiration dates will be provided each Thursday before the weekly expiration to fulfill the needs of traders who seek updated contracts.
Details on Binance’s Latest Monthly Options
The European style options differ from the other options because they can only be exercised at the expiry of contracts. Binance has highlighted these options to improve customers’ experiences and provide traders with more tools to help manage their funds.
These options would be with the minimum notational order of 0.001 BNB or SOL per order. Additionally unauthorized stablecoins may be banned for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) due to new MiCA regulations.
Binance advises users to consult the Options Contract Specifications for clarity on the terms and conditions relating to new additions to enhance user transparency.
Binance’s Broader Strategy: Expanding Trading Opportunities
Besides introducing these monthly options, Binance continues expanding its daily trading environment. It recently added new trading pairs with USDC like HBAR/USDC, OM/USDC, RAY/USDC, TAO/USDC, CATI/USDC, and FDUSD/USDC. Moreover, the modifications will boost user attraction and provide more trading opportunities on cross-margin and isolated-margin systems.
Binance also introduced new perpetual contracts including the 1000WHYUSDT and 1000CHEEMSUSDT contracts to the exchange with up to 75x leverage for professional traders. However Binance still monitors the market and has ceased trading of less performing pairs such as DAR/BTC, IRIS/BTC, and THETA/ETH to provide quality trading experience.
