      "body": "![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcgKb8Q1dLN7Zr3YgFgk3kgzJLR2Yots7rbnubxGNVmvh/image.png)\n\nDeribit is a derivatives exchange for trading cryptocurrency one of the main competitors to BitMEX, this guide is for those who just want a very basic understanding of Deribit’s options exchange.\n\n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX2RNCE9YoN1LyPuUAfL6Mv57eNp4tCakfdFXd1v2FAV9/image.png)\n\n## 1. Terminology\n\nFutures: a derivative contract that, when expired, will settle with value at expiration, whether or not the trade is at a loss. There is an obligation to fulfill the contract.\n\nOption: a derivative contract that, when expired, will only pay at expiration when it’s “in the money” or “at the money”. In other words, payment is optional and dependent on if the option is in profit.\n\nEuropean style option: an option that cannot be exercised prior to expiration. This does not mean you are forced to hold until expiry. All options on Deribit are European Vanilla style.\n\nCall: an option to buy the underlying asset at expiration. In simpler terms, buying calls = going long\n\nPut: an option to sell the underlying asset at expiration. In simpler terms, buying puts = going short\n\nΔ|Delta: the amount an option price is expected to move based on a $1 change in bitcoin. Delta total: (Futures Deltas + Options Deltas + Futures Session PL + Cash Balance - Equity). A delta of 0 means balance won’t change if bitcoin’s price changes.\n\nIntrinsic value: the premium between the underlying asset’s price (bitcoin index price) and strike price (price when the option will be in profit).\n\nTime value: the premium found from the difference between the premium and intrinsic value.\n\nImplied volatility: predicted volatility of an option, which can rise because of: increasing interest in buying the option, the underlying asset’s price rising, etc. Implied volatility can drop for the opposite reasons.\n\n## 2) Intrinsic Value, Time Value, Delta, and Implied Volatility\n\n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmakizUaQ8P3Z9Wx5Du3VWy952jJknhphDLDCYGRsJEKcj/image.png)\n\nIntrinsic value and time value are the main forces for option premiums. Intrinsic value is the difference found by being in the money.\n\nIntrinsic value for call options:\nIf underlying > strike price, then the intrinsic value =\nunderlying asset value minus the strike price\nIf the underlying is less than strike price, the intrinsic value is zero.\n\nIntrinsic value for put options:\nIf strike price > underlying, then the intrinsic value =\nstrike price minus the underlying asset value\nAnd if the underlying asset value is greater than strike price, the intrinsic value is zero.\n\nTime value has a greater value the more time an option has before expiring; time value experiences time decay, which means it loses value over time due to the option being more predictable.\nTime value is calculated the same for calls & puts:\ntime value = premium - intrinsic value\n\nΔ|Delta for options is bound between 0–1 (call) and -1–0 (put). A delta of 0.33 means that for each $1 that bitcoin moves, the option will increase in price $0.33. The other popular options Greeks are Vega, Gamma, and Theta (to be explained).\n\nImplied volatility (IV) is the estimated volatility of an option, and it factors in not only the underlying asset, bitcoin, but variables of the option as well such as the predicted expiration price. The extremely speculative market of cryptocurrency has high IVs for its derivatives, so it would be well worth looking into. The general rule for IV is that it may have a reversal after overextending. For traditional markets, it is recommended to short high IV and long low IV.\nDeribit’s historical volatility chart, you can see where bitcoin died on 2 Aug. 2018\n\n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZGMZmMdftwcPcQqQsaTfNZC8NgUg5zTVEAUCn7kiBV5G/image.png)\n\n## 3) Option Types\n\nWhen shorting calls or puts instead of longing them, the seller gains back the price of the option + its premium.\n\nMaximum gain: option price + premium (full profit is realized upon selling)\n\nPotential loss: unlimited\n\nShorting options, also known as writing options, is still profitable as options more often than not expire out of the money. Shorting options without owning the underlying asset or options to offset the risk (writing naked options) is like x100'ing during hardware maintenance.\n\n—\n\nBTC option: a plain option.\n\nUSD option: an option with fixed USD value, varying BTC value.\n\nIV option: an option with fixed IV, varying BTC value. Usually option premiums will increase more so if IV increases.\n\n—\n\nExpiration days are on Fridays, 0800 UTC. Weekly, monthly, quarterly (3 months), and 6 month options are available to trade, and understandably the longest option contracts are most expensive due to having more time to speculate.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nSo there you have it a pretty basic run through of Deribit Bitcoin options. This article just skims the surface for Bitcoin options and options in general. However this is a nice base. Now you can completely disregard this article and YOLO your hard earned Bitcoin on BTC 50,000$ EOY call contracts like a real man.",

      "body": "## What is Delta Exchange\n\nDelta is a cryptocurrency derivatives exchange. Currently offering futures contracts for BTC, ETH, XRP and XLM offering up to 100x leverage.\n\nCryptocurrencies are geography agnostic and so is Delta. They want to be able to serve traders all over the globe and that’s why they have taken the strategic call to not have any fiat interaction on Delta. All derivative contracts on Delta are settled in crypto.\n\n![Screenshot_2018-12-23 Delta Exchange - #TradersFirst Cryptocurrency Derivatives Exchange.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmS29qPQ5oTzUNDtVWLV8CnjM9jbWcZpn5HozCKZYUHdyh/Screenshot_2018-12-23%20Delta%20Exchange%20-%20#TradersFirst%20Cryptocurrency%20Derivatives%20Exchange.png)\n\n## Who’s behind Delta\n\nPankaj Balani (CEO): has spent over 6 years in derivatives trading in Hong Kong and India at wall street giants like UBS. He has deep experiences in derivatives, quantitative finance and Asian equity markets. Pankaj also helped build and grow an e-commerce business in India which went on to raise Series C round of financing.\n\nJitender Tokas (CBO): has worked with Citigroup in India and GIC in Singapore. In his 8+ years career in financial services, Jitender has been both an institutional investor and equity research analyst and helped two Indian Internet companies raise money from public markets.\n\nSaurabh Goyal (CTO) is a serial entrepreneur and a seasoned tech leader. He first cofounded Housing.com which went on to raise money from Softbank. Saurabh then built and sold a FoodTech company, TinyOwl that scaled to 1.5mn users, 1200 employees and raised USD ~25mn from the likes of Sequoia, Matrix and Nexus. Saurabh was also the Director of Engineering at Hostar — a video streaming platform which has over 20mn users and handles ~5mn concurrent users.\n\n## Why Crypto Derivatives Matter\n\nDerivatives are an important segment of global financial markets. Derivatives offer various types of risk protections, enable innovative trading strategies and are key contributors to the well-being and stability of the financial system.\n\nThe building blocks of fiat-led financial markets are currently being created in the crypto ecosystem. They believe derivatives is one such piece that will continue to gain prominence as both crypto markets and investors mature.\n\nIt is worth noting that there’s more to derivatives than just leveraged speculation. Derivatives have the potential to serve as important risk management tools for long-term HODLers, miners and even day traders.\n\nWell-functioning crypto derivatives markets will lead to lower volatility (as traders can go both long and short), higher liquidity and will make the currently rampant market manipulation harder.\n\n## Why another Crypto Derivatives Exchange\n\nCurrently derivatives are available only on a handful of crypto exchanges. While there’s ample liquidity in Futures on top coins, there’s significant discontent in the trader community due to questionable practices of some of the trading venues and wide-spread market manipulation.\n\nThe crypto derivatives community is looking for alternatives that provide a fair, reliable and safe way to trade crypto derivatives. They aim to be this alternative. They aim to be a traders first exchange.\n\n![Screenshot_2018-12-23 Delta Exchange - #TradersFirst Cryptocurrency Derivatives Exchange(1).png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfPW5Wd7pwYk3b9iVv9sq73v9sCkNa4VJTBs7PCVFcuCy/Screenshot_2018-12-23%20Delta%20Exchange%20-%20#TradersFirst%20Cryptocurrency%20Derivatives%20Exchange(1).png)\n\n## What do they stand for\n\nMission: To accelerate the advancement of the cryptocurrency financial system\n\nVision: To build the most liquid and trusted global cryptocurrency derivatives exchange that can ably to serve both retail and institutional traders.\n\nFairness: They are committed to providing a fair trading venue to all our clients, irrespective of their size or significance.\n\nIntegrity: They are committed to be honest in all dealings with clients, business partners and vendors.\n\nTransparency: They are committed to be transparent and consistent about various exchange policies (matching engine, risk management) to ensure a predictable and reliable trading experience.\n\n## How do we plan to achieve our goals\n\nFinancial Innovation: They have a well-defined pipeline for augmenting the financial products listed on Delta. This includes Futures contracts on leading altcoins, Perpetual contracts, settlement in multiple cryptocurrencies and Options.\n\nTech leadership: Our trade matching engine has been built in-house from scratch, for scale. It is supported by robust risk engine, strong APIs and Enterprise-grade security. We are striving to make 24/7 availability, reliability and liquidity the defining features of Delta\n\nCustomer focus: As an exchange, their responsibility is first to their traders. They focused on providing the traders on Delta the best possible and fair trading experience.\n\nhttps://i.postimg.cc/qM3MhXmD/Screenshot-2018-12-23-100-first-deposit-bonus-Trade-Futures-on.png\n\n## Conclusion\n\nAfter using Delta Exchange for the past few weeks its main issue is that of all infantile exchanges. Liquidity. Delta also sees this as their primary concern and have offered incentives for traders to use their platform. Offering trading competitions, fee reductions and the recently announced free Bitcoin for depositing 0.01BTC on the platform. In all other aspects of the platform it is a joy to use. Trade execution is fast with minimal delay, fees are competitive, there are multiple trading pairs, the platform is easy to use and their is no shadiness like we see on other exchanges (cough cough BitMEX) I am optimistic about the future of Delta, as long as it can get past its shortcomings.\n\n## [Delta Exchange]( https://tinyurl.com/yd3gj7at)",

      "body": "‘How do I earn Bitcoin?’, ‘How do I mine with a computer?’ are some of the most asked questions since the emergence of cryptocurrencies.\n\nHoneyMiner answers those questions and is popularly referred to as a software which ‘makes mining and earning money simple for anyone with a computer’.\n\n## What is HoneyMiner?\n\nHoneyMiner is a mining software created by a company with the same name. The software allows its users to participate in a dynamic mining pool by running the app when the computer’s graphics processing unit (GPU).\n\nA free beta version of the HoneyMiner was launched in June. The software uses the SSL technology and encryption to make the clients always protected at all times.\n\nThe HoneyMiner servers are also 100% anonymous and decentralized. The software adopts a 2-factor authentication to ensure that only you will be able to use your account.\n\n![screenshot.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWHrnBTu5HDg7eaztZrSkbciuWG8LWbiasGVkYQ33Whjz/screenshot.png)\n\n## How does HoneyMiner work?\n\nTo use HoneyMiner, all you need is to download the software, and create an account, and have a computer with a working wireless connection.\n\nFor every session, the HoneyMiner app will scan dozens of tokens and choose the most profitable ones to mine. Tokens will be automatically mined and sent to you on a daily basis.\n\nWhen a mining session is complete, HoneyMiner sends the participant’s earnings, converted into bitcoin, directly to the user’s wallet. You can decide to invest in more hashpower and profit more or you can withdraw the earnings for cash.\n\nThe mining pool of HoneyMiner focuses on mining cryptos like Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, ZCash, Monero and other GPU-friendly digital assets.\n\nMining with HoneyMiner is not only possible with rigs. Each computer gets different tasks, based on its performance or capabilities. The capability of your computer determines how much profit is made.\n\nWith HoneyMiner, the mining process is almost automatic, you do not have to create a special configuration, setting or even monitor the prices of the digital assets to be mined.\n\nThe HoneyMiner software that says you can earn profits from your computer’s GPU daily without doing anything. Mining is done for free with the software.\n\n![honeyminer-featured.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbaXD4Brn9QmEBsay5Ctckp6ETHftFGoomMNdreR6Dmh8/honeyminer-featured.png)\n\n## HoneyMiner for professionals\n\nThe current HoneyMiner software has only been recently released and new features are being constantly added but the company has announced that a specialized version would be launched soon.\n\nHoneyMiner Pro is currently undergoing development for professional miners who need help with power consumption management and options for manually choosing which cryptos to mine.\n\nThe HoneyMiner Pro asides from adding extra features, would be removing a lot of restrictions. Miners would be able to choose coins to cash out in, in case they don’t want bitcoin.\n\n## Takeaway\n\nWith the HoneyMiner beta you can earn from $1 to $3 USD daily without necessarily doing anything. Its a nice source of passive income regardless of what machine you are running it on. \n\nBack in the day in a land far far away Bitcoin was actually mined by the users themselves. It was a global network where people from around the world contributed there hashpower, whether it was big or small. The users had a stake in the network. But unfortunately that time has passed and Bitcoin is mined in far away lands in loud warehouses churning out million of hashes a day. Mining is now an oligopoly. In order to join this oligopoly you need to buy from a monopoly. \n\nHoneyminer is trying to take back some of that power and give it to the users. They won't be able to compete with the big mining firms but the users can now have a stake in a much smaller network. A small stake but a stake none the less.\n\n## Honeyminer: https://tinyurl.com/y7blfo3a",

      "body": "![1*778YHRLaOPErXhkdz_XbtA.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbwfCxBJ2fJJkRuwVwEZM2KEoLZrRVv1mGVTbKaxoNW4f/1*778YHRLaOPErXhkdz_XbtA.png)\nDeribit is a derivatives exchange for trading cryptocurrency one of the main competitors to BitMEX, this guide is for those who just want a very basic understanding of Deribit’s options exchange.\n\n![1*7clCrCo-yeDkEhqFmgg4uw.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUGVFGLyjjYAq78fmwxZgmmhKDTAQMstwkWpsUp5aEvpK/1*7clCrCo-yeDkEhqFmgg4uw.png)\n\n## 1. Terminology\n\nFutures: a derivative contract that, when expired, will settle with value at expiration, whether or not the trade is at a loss. There is an obligation to fulfill the contract.\n\nOption: a derivative contract that, when expired, will only pay at expiration when it’s “in the money” or “at the money”. In other words, payment is optional and dependent on if the option is in profit.\n\nEuropean style option: an option that cannot be exercised prior to expiration. This does not mean you are forced to hold until expiry. All options on Deribit are European Vanilla style.\n\nCall: an option to buy the underlying asset at expiration. In simpler terms, buying calls = going long\n\nPut: an option to sell the underlying asset at expiration. In simpler terms, buying puts = going short\n\nΔ|Delta: the amount an option price is expected to move based on a $1 change in bitcoin. Delta total: (Futures Deltas + Options Deltas + Futures Session PL + Cash Balance - Equity). A delta of 0 means balance won’t change if bitcoin’s price changes.\n\nIntrinsic value: the premium between the underlying asset’s price (bitcoin index price) and strike price (price when the option will be in profit).\n\nTime value: the premium found from the difference between the premium and intrinsic value.\n\nImplied volatility: predicted volatility of an option, which can rise because of: increasing interest in buying the option, the underlying asset’s price rising, etc. Implied volatility can drop for the opposite reasons.\n\n## 2) Intrinsic Value, Time Value, Delta, and Implied Volatility\n\n![0*qN11cmvtkkZmMVEG.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmagoAZJhKcXsaR876GgmcvRVCA6eatDsrWcDr5uKxpRwT/0*qN11cmvtkkZmMVEG.png)\n\nIntrinsic value and time value are the main forces for option premiums. Intrinsic value is the difference found by being in the money.\n\nIntrinsic value for call options:\nIf underlying > strike price, then the intrinsic value =\nunderlying asset value minus the strike price\nIf the underlying is less than strike price, the intrinsic value is zero.\n\nIntrinsic value for put options:\nIf strike price > underlying, then the intrinsic value =\nstrike price minus the underlying asset value\nAnd if the underlying asset value is greater than strike price, the intrinsic value is zero.\n\nTime value has a greater value the more time an option has before expiring; time value experiences time decay, which means it loses value over time due to the option being more predictable. \nTime value is calculated the same for calls & puts: \ntime value = premium - intrinsic value\n\nΔ|Delta for options is bound between 0–1 (call) and -1–0 (put). A delta of 0.33 means that for each $1 that bitcoin moves, the option will increase in price $0.33. The other popular options Greeks are Vega, Gamma, and Theta (to be explained).\n\nImplied volatility (IV) is the estimated volatility of an option, and it factors in not only the underlying asset, bitcoin, but variables of the option as well such as the predicted expiration price. The extremely speculative market of cryptocurrency has high IVs for its derivatives, so it would be well worth looking into. The general rule for IV is that it may have a reversal after overextending. For traditional markets, it is recommended to short high IV and long low IV.\nDeribit’s historical volatility chart, you can see where bitcoin died on 2 Aug. 2018\n\n![1*NU8lrz5OkR9aBiJba-l3gw.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPPU5RL1cxoBk9LZUiiHy68AV8XVadbQXV3xWEPESHYXu/1*NU8lrz5OkR9aBiJba-l3gw.png)\n\n## 3) Option Types\n\nWhen shorting calls or puts instead of longing them, the seller gains back the price of the option + its premium.\n\nMaximum gain: option price + premium (full profit is realized upon selling)\n\n Potential loss: unlimited\n\nShorting options, also known as writing options, is still profitable as options more often than not expire out of the money. Shorting options without owning the underlying asset or options to offset the risk (writing naked options) is like x100'ing during hardware maintenance.\n\n—\n\nBTC option: a plain option.\n\nUSD option: an option with fixed USD value, varying BTC value.\n\nIV option: an option with fixed IV, varying BTC value. Usually option premiums will increase more so if IV increases.\n\n—\n\nExpiration days are on Fridays, 0800 UTC. Weekly, monthly, quarterly (3 months), and 6 month options are available to trade, and understandably the longest option contracts are most expensive due to having more time to speculate.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nSo there you have it a pretty basic run through of Deribit Bitcoin options. This article just skims the surface for Bitcoin options and options in general. However this is a nice base. Now you can completely disregard this article and YOLO your hard earned Bitcoin on BTC 50,000$ EOY call contracts like a real man.\n\n## Deribit: https://tinyurl.com/y8kqgloo",

      "body": "## About\n\nThis year SimpleFX has been really busy. In November its client base reached 100 000. They also introduced DASH and Bitcoin Cash as deposit cryptocurrencies, alongside Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum, which had already been available. Another development involved introducing Crypto Indexes, which give the traders higher liquidity, ultra-fast data feed, and faster order execution. SimpleFX also launched a mobile app earlier in the year for trading on the go.\n\n![Screenshot-2018-10-14 SimpleFX Online CFDs Trading, Forex, Bitcoins, Indices and Commodities.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmb3mAALuu5BUbeuq4tLFmaK4eZbk1a7pBok2WCL8hfwZC/Screenshot-2018-10-14%20SimpleFX%20Online%20CFDs%20Trading,%20Forex,%20Bitcoins,%20Indices%20and%20Commodities.png)\n\n### Trading Pairs\n\nSimpleFX offers over sixty currency pairs, sixteen cryptocurrency pairs, as well as indices (incl. NYSE, NIKKEI, DAX), equities (incl. Snapchat, Google, Facebook) and commodities (incl. Gas, Oil, Gold). On top of the five deposit cryptocurrencies, the traders can choose from fifteen deposit fiat currencies and flexible deposit options, such as Bank Transfer, Skrill, Neteller, Credit Cards.\n\nSimpleFX makes every effort to ensure their traders' security. This is why they offer full anonymity cryptocurrency accounts that to not require KYC as well as having negative balance protection. The clients' funds are also kept on segregated accounts. SimpleFX has gathered a global trading community, spanning over 130 countries. Traders can use the live chat to instantly exchange opinions simply share a chart or even a spot of shitposting.\n\n## Opening A Trade\n\nOpening a new trade on SimpleFX’s desktop web trader is relatively straightforward. For the sake of this example, let’s have a look at how to place a trade using Litecoin (LTC) however the process is the exact same for stocks and forex too.\n\n![Screen-Shot-2018-07-30-at-10.17.39-PM-980x601.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUbSdonQXLe2oFGjF8wKk21x1L2f1yJBouQX3Ft4kTrQr/Screen-Shot-2018-07-30-at-10.17.39-PM-980x601.png)\n\nIn order to open a position with LTC, you ought to click on “Crypto” and select the LTCXXX pair that you want to open a trade for. For the sake of this example, we’ve chosen LTC trading against USD. Once you click on it, you will see an option to choose “New Order”. Clicking on it would get you to this screen:\n\n![SimpleFX_2-268x420.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPt6cEPm9k65tUNJh1MHLpmYDZo7KKRiTGMzhgzN9HM7J/SimpleFX_2-268x420.png)\n\nHere, you can see that you’d have to choose whether you want to open a “Buy” or “Sell” position. You can choose the amount that you want to engage the market with, the trade value as well as the required margin. Additionally, you are also allowed to put a Stop Loss to prevent serious downfalls or, if you are set on a certain target price, you can use the “Take Profit” option. \n\n## Conclusion\n\nOverall, SimpleFX is truly an innovative trading platform. Its a platform that is bridging the gap between traditional finance and cryptocurrency allowing anyone with Crypto to get easy access. Thats one of the original visions of crypto is it not? Banking the unbanked and tearing down the red tape creating a freer society for everyone.",
