    Yes, it is possible to sell put options on Robinhood for cryptocurrencies without owning the underlying assets. When you sell a put option, you are essentially agreeing to buy the underlying asset at a specific price if the option is exercised. However, on Robinhood, you don't need to own the underlying asset to sell the put option. You can simply sell the option and collect the premium without actually owning the cryptocurrency.

    Absolutely! Robinhood allows you to sell put options for cryptocurrencies without owning the underlying assets. This can be a great strategy if you believe the price of a particular cryptocurrency will go up or if you want to generate income from the premium. Just keep in mind that if the option is exercised, you will need to buy the cryptocurrency at the strike price.
