    If your cryptocurrency options expire, you will lose the initial investment you made to purchase those options. Options give you the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a certain amount of a cryptocurrency at a predetermined price within a specific timeframe. If the options expire without being exercised, they become worthless and you won't be able to recoup your investment.

    When your cryptocurrency options expire, it means that the predetermined timeframe for exercising those options has passed. If you don't exercise the options before they expire, you will lose the initial investment you made to acquire them. It's important to keep track of the expiration dates and make timely decisions to avoid losing your investment.

    If your cryptocurrency options expire, you will lose the investment you made to acquire those options. However, at BYDFi, we offer a feature called 'auto-exercise' which automatically exercises your options if they are in the money at expiration. This can help you avoid losing your investment if you forget to exercise the options manually. Make sure to check if your exchange offers a similar feature.
