What Is the Maximum Profit for the Buyer of a Put Option?

The maximum profit for the buyer of a put option is capped at the strike price minus the premium paid. Since the price of the underlying cryptocurrency cannot fall below zero, the maximum gain is realized if the asset's price drops to zero.

The total profit is the strike price (the maximum sell price) minus the premium paid.
