A decentralized derivatives platform allows users to trade financial contracts whose value is derived from an underlying asset, all without the need for a central intermediary. These platforms typically operate on blockchain technology, utilizing smart contracts for trade execution, margin management, and settlement. They offer global access and transparency, often with lower barriers to entry compared to traditional markets. Users retain control over their funds throughout the trading process.
