In Options Trading, How Can a Tokenized Asset Derivative Be Structured?

A tokenized options contract is represented as a smart contract on a blockchain. This token can represent the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call) or sell (put) an underlying asset at a specified price (strike) before a certain date (expiration).

The token itself can be traded on a decentralized exchange. This structure allows for fractional ownership and global accessibility.
