Blockchain.com Launches TRX Options With $5 Minimum

Blockchain.com has made TRON's native token ($TRX) options available through its Trading Account as part of a seven-asset launch, featuring a $5 minimum premium. According to CryptoNews, access to the service is restricted to eligible users outside the United States and other excluded jurisdictions.

Option Details and Counterparty Structure

The options start at a $5 premium plus fees and cannot be sold or closed before expiration. Blockchain.com’s BVI entity acts as the sole counterparty, with contracts settled bilaterally outside an exchange. Customers choose an expiration date, target price, and trade amount before confirming a purchase, with initial contracts running for up to one week. Purchases are funded upfront with USDC held in the Trading Account, setting the maximum potential trading loss for the buyer.

Eligibility and Geographic Restrictions

Under Blockchain.com’s published eligibility rules, residents of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Malta, Japan, and Nigeria are excluded from the service. The access guide strictly prohibits using a virtual private network to bypass these location restrictions.
