Threadguy explains why traders will continue to flock to Crypto “Remus is up $970K, almost 3 figures to 7 figures on a publicly doxxed wallet. Almost a $1M PNL trade in this market” “No other market in the history of humanity has it been possible to turn $370 into $1M in 3 weeks, you can’t do it in stocks, you can’t do it with options and you can’t even really do it with perps. And that is why and will continue to be why traders will flock to this space”

Most crypto traders only know spot and perps. That’s a mistake. I finally spent time learning crypto options on Derive.xyz, and it’s one of the most underused tools in this market. Simple example: You’re long 1 BTC, bullish long-term, but don’t want to panic through a short-term drawdown. You buy a protective put. Downside is capped during the bar. Upside stays open unlike a perp short since you don't get liquidated for more than the cost. Your max loss is known in advance. This lets you hold spot through all the bear market drops without panic selling. Options are already massive in TradFi. In new financial markets like crypto, they always mature last. We’re already seeing: • Institutions driving options volume to ATHs • Volatility harvesting replacing Old “yield” strategies • Spot and perps infra reaching full saturation This is where crypto trading is heading. Just scratching the surface in this video 👇
