Crypto potential remains strong as the options market holds 97% growth ahead, per Deribit’s Sidrah Fariq. The segment now makes up just 2.8% of crypto derivatives. Institutional interest has surged since spot Bitcoin ETFs launched in January 2024. Deribit’s institutional business share rose to 85% in three years. BTC DVOL has stayed under 100 since 2022, signaling reduced volatility. Signalplus’ Augustine Fan calls the options market early-stage, with major expansion expected.

Citing Bitcoin.com, Deribit's Sidrah Fariq highlights that the crypto options market currently accounts for only 2.8% of the derivatives space, indicating significant growth potential. Fariq attributes the shift toward options and derivatives to the arrival of institutional investors following the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024. This has led to a notable decline in market volatility, as evidenced by Deribit’s BTC DVOL index remaining below 100 since 2022. With institutional demand rising, Deribit has seen its institutional business share grow from 80% to 85% in the last three years. Experts like Signalplus’ Augustine Fan also note the early stage of crypto options compared to futures and traditional markets, projecting substantial future growth.
