Crypto exchange Coincall has entered the Top 5 global crypto options exchanges by trading volume, a milestone achieved just 18 months after its founding. The exchange's performance surge is linked to a successful Q1 strategy that included high-impact marketing campaigns and new product rollouts, in collaboration with crypto partners SignalPlus, DWF, and Big Candle Capital.

Crypto options, once a niche strategy, are now becoming a core market structure. These contracts give traders the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell assets at a set price, enabling sophisticated hedging, volatility plays, and directional speculation.

As the broader digital asset market matures, crypto options are increasingly viewed as a critical building block of the financial stack. That narrative hit the mainstream this month when reports emerged of Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) being in advanced talks to acquire Deribit, the market's dominant BTC and ETH options venue, for a rumored $4–5 billion. Although negotiations have since slowed, the message from the market is clear: crypto derivatives are no longer a sideshow — they’re center stage.

Coincall's breakout is notable not just for its velocity, but for the company's relative youth. Founded in late 2023, Coincall now ranks among the top exchanges in the space, with it currently 9-10% the size of Deribit.

This distinction makes Coincall the youngest exchange ever to break into the Top 5, and potentially one of the most viable candidates for acquisition or partnership among rising players. As attention shifts from mature giants to agile challengers, Coincall has positioned itself at the center of that conversation.

In January, Coincall appointed Daryl Teo — former strategist at Alibaba Group (NYSE:BABA) and a long-time investor in the crypto space — as Chief Operating Officer and minority shareholder.

"We’re witnessing crypto achieve consensus-level legitimacy as a store of value," Teo said. "Options are the next wave — they provide leverage, flexibility, and strategy. Our mission at Coincall is simple: make investing quick, intuitive, and safe — for everyone.”
