Title: Derivatives market? Post by: keystroke on April 20, 2014, 05:40:10 AM Next bubble it'd be nice to insure against the drop by buying some puts. Then get more coin back after the dip.
Anyone do this late last year? Besides some, I believe, thinly traded MPEx stuff, I don't know of a market.... Perhaps someone here would be willing to write contracts. I see lots of advantage to this strategy. I could never short the coin. And selling to buy back has many disadvantages (exchange risk, tax liability, etc.) Title: Re: Derivatives market?

For ideological reasons I can never short the coin. :) Buying insurance with options is another matter. Title: Re: Derivatives market?
