Crypto Derivatives Series I: Futures ➡ In Series I of the Crypto Derivatives research between Presto Research and Laevitas, we explore the world of futures, both term and perpetual. ➡ Futures allow traders to trade both sides of the market, long and short, with leverage. ➡ The introduction of futures into crypto was transformative for the overall market, and in particular, perpetual futures introduced by BitMEX in 2016, have taken over volumes, averaging over $90B/day across all exchanges since mid-2021. ➡ In 2024, despite BTC’s all-time-highs and excitement over the spot ETF, volumes on a price adjusted basis have not returned to what they once were. ➡ The CME on the other hand, which only offers term futures in BTC and ETH, have benefited from the recent narratives, becoming the #1 exchange in both term futures volumes and open interest, as well as a top 5 exchange in total derivatives volume.

Discover Key Crypto Trading Instruments: Futures, Options, and Perpetuals! 🔹 Futures are about locking in today's price for future trading, managing market unpredictability and offering strategies against price fluctuations. 🔹 Options provide a choice, but not an obligation, to buy or sell at a future price. They offer a way to speculate on market trends or act as a safeguard against price changes. 🔹 Perpetuals, common in crypto, allow continuous trading without an expiry date, adapting to the market's dynamic nature. 🔹 While futures and options are time-bound, perpetuals offer endless trading. Futures ensure a future transaction, options offer flexibility, and perpetuals keep the market continuously active. 🔹 These derivatives are crucial for managing risks, from hedging against adverse price movements to speculating on future market directions.

As the crypto market has been picking up momentum lately, we are witnessing an increased demand for leveraged futures trading. As a result, funding rates have increased significantly across perpetual futures trading platforms. As open interest becomes skewed to the long side, exchanges pay fees to traders who short as a part of their risk management design. This presents some interesting delta neutral funding rate arbitrage strategies on assets like INJ, ATOM and TIA. By being spot long on these (and staking) while simultaneously hedging on derivates (and getting paid to short), you can generate up towards 70% APY with no exposure to price risk. At the same time, there is speculation that staking these three assets will grant future token airdrops which increases the potential return further. By inputting your desired investment size and preferred leverage, the calculator estimates the long/short allocation for maximum return. Note that this doesn't factor in open/close fees on the short position nor potential slippage. Calculator (copy to your own sheet to edit): https://lnkd.in/d2x885H9
