What Is the Profit Potential for the Buyer of a Crypto Call Option?

The profit potential for the buyer of a crypto call option is theoretically unlimited. Since the price of the underlying cryptocurrency can rise indefinitely, the intrinsic value of the call option also has no upper limit.

The net profit is the intrinsic value at expiration minus the premium paid. This unlimited upside combined with limited downside (the premium) is the main appeal of buying call options.
