In Financial Derivatives, What Is the Equivalent of a Miner’s Breakeven Point?

In financial derivatives, the equivalent of a miner's breakeven point is the strike price of an option or the forward price of a futures contract. For a miner, the breakeven is the coin price that covers their production costs.

For an option, the strike price is the price at which the holder can execute the contract to avoid a loss. For a futures contract, the forward price is the agreed-upon price for future delivery.

All three represent a critical price level that determines the profitability or loss of the underlying activity or contract.
