    Options on digital currencies typically have expiration dates and times, just like options on traditional financial assets. The expiration date is the last day on which the option can be exercised. The expiration time is the specific time on that day when the option expires. The expiration date and time are predetermined and specified in the option contract. Factors such as the type of digital currency, the exchange where the option is traded, and the terms of the option contract can all influence the expiration date and time. It's important to check the specific details of each option contract to know when it expires.

Some options may expire on a specific date, while others may have a weekly or monthly expiration cycle. Additionally, the expiration time can vary, with some options expiring at the end of the trading day and others expiring at a specific time during the day. It's crucial to review the details of each option contract to determine its expiration date and time.

    Options on digital currencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, have different expiration dates and times. For example, at BYDFi, options on Bitcoin usually expire on the last Friday of the month, while options on Ethereum expire on the last Thursday of the month. The expiration time is typically at the end of the trading day, which is 8:00 PM UTC. However, it's important to note that expiration dates and times can vary between different exchanges and different digital currencies. It's always recommended to check the specific details of each option contract to know when it expires.
