If Stock Perpetuals trade 24/7, why are Stock Options only during regular hours?
I’m used to the fact that on Binance, traditional assets can be found in an entirely different trading model.
For example, Stock Perpetuals trade 24/7.
So I became curious about what happens to Stock Options.
Binance launches options on U.S. stocks and ETFs, but they don’t move to a 24/7 mode. For most of these options, trading happens during regular U.S. market hours, without pre-market and after-hours.
If two TradFi instruments are available on the same platform, why can one be traded 24/7 while the other is still tied to traditional market hours?
For me, this is a good example of how crypto infrastructure ≠ crypto market structure.
Moving a financial instrument to a new environment doesn’t automatically mean all its operating rules change.
The logic of the financial instrument itself may still remain partly traditional.
So now I’m interested in looking at the development of TradFi on Binance a little differently:
what exactly changes when traditional financial instruments move into a crypto-native environment—and what still remains tied to the old market model?
