Since its launch in 2023, the platform has handled $1.5 billion in trading volume, mainly from institutional clients.


As the crypto options market evolves, especially in the politically charged climate of Q4 2024, traders are increasingly using options not only for hedging but also to express views on market volatility. Thalex’s unique offerings, including linear options, daily-settled futures, and perpetuals in USDT, meet this growing demand with support for multi-asset collateral and native combination trades.


Hendrik Ghys, Co-Founder and CEO of Thalex, stated that they built Thalex with the belief that options, futures, and perpetuals are complementary and anticipate significant volume growth across these contracts. They are close to achieving the customer experience they envisioned and aim to provide a seamless trading experience.
