Binance Unveils Options on Over 1,000 US Stocks and ETFs for Global Users

Binance is expanding its offerings by providing users outside of the US access to options tied to more than 1,000 US stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) through a partnership with Alpaca Securities LLC.

The contracts are available only to users in regions where Binance operates outside of the US, specifically via its Abu Dhabi entity Nest Trading Limited. This move marks another product tied to traditional assets made available on Binance, following tokenized securities and perpetual futures.

This partnership allows customers to trade options on a vast array of stocks and ETFs without having to directly access these markets. While this is an expansion for Binance, it's worth noting that US users will not have access to this feature due to regulatory restrictions.
