Binance has officially lowered the barrier to entry for sophisticated crypto trading by opening its Ethereum (ETH) options writing features to its entire user base. Previously a tool exclusive to professional and institutional traders, this upgrade allows everyday users to engage in premium-based income strategies.

Generating Income via Options Writing

The core of this update allows users to act as Options Sellers (writers). Instead of just buying options, users can now earn immediate upfront income by:

  • Collecting Premiums: Sellers receive a fee from buyers for providing price protection. This premium is kept by the seller regardless of the market’s final direction.
  • Risk Management: To ensure market stability, sellers must post margin (collateral). Binance has also implemented a mandatory suitability assessment to ensure participants understand the complexities of derivatives before they begin.

Liquidity Boost and Incentives

To celebrate the rollout, Binance is offering a 20% fee discount (Maker and Taker) for VIP users trading newly listed options contracts across major assets, including ETH, BTC, BNB, and SOL.


A Comprehensive Suite of Yield Products

Options writing joins a robust lineup of income-generating tools within the Binance Earn ecosystem, catering to various risk appetites:

  • ETH Staking: Earn 3%–5% annual yield with a low entry point of just 0.001 ETH.
  • Flexible & Locked Earn: Earn interest on idle assets with either instant access or higher-yield fixed terms.
  • Liquidity Farming: Earn a portion of trading fees by providing assets to decentralized pools.
  • Web3 Loans: Use the Binance Wallet to borrow against holdings via protocols like Venus, allowing for capital deployment without liquidating positions.

The Bottom Line

By bringing professional-grade tools to the retail market, Binance is responding to a growing demand for sophisticated financial instruments. While the profit potential is higher, the platform maintains a focus on safety through its strict margin requirements and user education checks.
