Markets 2025-10-09 10:42

FalconX, a leading crypto prime broker, has officially launched a new electronic options trading platform designed for institutional investors, the company announced on September 29.


The platform aims to solve fragmentation in the over-the-counter (OTC) crypto options market by offering round-the-clock electronic execution and API access. This allows investors to implement sophisticated multi-leg options strategies through a single interface without the need to negotiate with multiple counterparties.

FalconX’s 24/7 Integrated Trading Environment

FalconX combines a Request-for-Quote (RFQ) model with its proprietary liquidity infrastructure to provide fast, scalable trade execution. According to the company, the service gives institutional clients “24/7 electronic access to OTC crypto options,” unlocking a level of efficiency previously unavailable in the market.

At launch, the platform supports Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Hyperliquid’s HYPE token. FalconX also plans to expand support to additional altcoins, with advanced strategy-building tools tailored to institutional-grade investors.

Meeting Institutional Demand in a Growing Market

The rollout comes as institutional investors, including hedge funds, seek regulated and efficient exposure to crypto derivatives. FalconX is positioning itself as a key player in delivering the infrastructure needed for this new wave of adoption.

The platform has already completed integration with Talos, a leading digital asset trading platform, further boosting credibility and industry reach. According to reports, Talos led the API integration effort, marking a strategic partnership that strengthens FalconX’s market positioning.

At launch, Solana (SOL) was trading at $206.93, while HYPE stood at $46.51. FalconX says its goal is to remain at the forefront of crypto infrastructure by delivering sophisticated derivatives tools tailored to institutional demand.
