FalconX, an institutional digital asset prime broker, has unveiled its Electronic Options platform.
According to the firm, the new platform allows for 24/7 trading and brings together the speed and scalability of electronic execution with the tailor-made nature of over-the-counter (OTC) crypto options trading.
It is designed to enable institutional investors to execute options strategies 24/7 via UI or API.
The company says its Electronic Options platform bridges the gap between conventional OTC trading and modern electronic execution.
The platform allows access to differentiated FalconX principal liquidity, designed to provide size and price improvement.
It also delivers a matrix-style strategy builder for multi-leg positions with adjustable ratios per leg, allowing for efficient workflows for structuring complex trades.
The solution expands asset coverage with options available on BTC, ETH, SOL, and HYPE at launch, with support for additional altcoins coming soon.
For fintechs and retail platforms, electronic options’ turnkey API access and high throughput performance unlock new revenue streams and faster time-to-market with minimal operational lift, the firm says.
Josh Lim, global co-head of markets, FalconX, comments: “The options market is the next major frontier in institutional crypto. We built this platform to address the longstanding challenges of fragmented liquidity and lack of round-the-clock access.
“With FalconX Electronic Options, clients get the same execution quality our OTC desk is known for — now in a format designed for scale, distribution, and true 24/7 access.”
Anton Katz, CEO of Talos, says: “ “FalconX’s electronic options platform sets a new bar for institutional access to crypto derivatives, combining deep liquidity with best-in-class execution infrastructure.”
