AVAX contracts are now available on UpDown Options in the Crypto.com App, in addition to Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ether (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Litecoin (LTC).
UpDown Options are the first CFTC-regulated crypto derivatives product that gives users the tools to capture value in all market conditions, allowing them to maximize profit and minimize losses, trade with lower costs, and hedge against price dips.
Traders can choose to buy or sell an UpDown Option depending on which direction they believe the market will go. Users can trade BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC and DOGE on four available contracts each depending on their risk appetite, seven days a week. UpDown Options are currently only available to users in the US but will be available in other jurisdictions soon.
Avalanche, a Layer-1 blockchain, is engineered to securely record transactions on a public, immutable, and trustless ledger. Its ambition is to surpass Ethereum as the leading blockchain for smart contracts, boasting a remarkable transaction output of up to 6,500 transactions per second without compromising scalability.
