From Yield to Derivatives: Inside The Institutional Crypto Playbook
Join The Big Whale & Gemini for an exclusive breakfast in Paris on the future of crypto derivatives.
From futures and options to structured products, derivatives are reshaping institutional trading - powering smarter hedging, arbitrage, and risk management.
As regulation tightens and liquidity deepens, crypto derivatives are scaling fast - just like in traditional finance, where they dwarf spot markets.
Meet bankers, fund managers, and traders as we explore the next frontier of institutional crypto trading - across centralized and decentralized platforms.
Big thanks to Gemini for making this happen!
