Welcome back to the second episode of our Derivatives Decoded Video Series! If you have not watched Episode 1 yet, you can catch it here. In that video, we broke down what derivatives are and why they exist, and simple tools built to help traders manage risk and create opportunities.
In Episode 2, we break down three of the most common derivatives in crypto: Options, Perpetual Futures (Perps), and Structured Products. Instead of charts and jargon, we use everyday analogies to help you quickly understand what each tool does and which type of trader it is built for.
