  To exercise a put option without owning the underlying cryptocurrency, you can consider using a derivatives exchange that offers options trading. These exchanges allow you to trade options contracts without actually owning the underlying asset. You can simply buy the put option contract and then sell it back when you want to exercise it.

  If you don't own the underlying cryptocurrency, exercising a put option can be a bit tricky. One option is to find someone who does own the cryptocurrency and enter into a contract with them. You can agree to sell the put option to them at a predetermined price. This way, you can exercise the option without actually owning the cryptocurrency yourself. However, finding a willing counterparty may not always be easy, so it's important to explore other alternatives as well.
