There are many ways to optimize yield in digital assets. But options strategies are becoming increasingly important. As shown in our OTC market report, options volumes doubled in 2025, and for the first time, flow was led by systematic yield and risk management strategies rather than one-off directional trades. This signals a market that is maturing.

Options-based yield strategies are, however, still much less transparent than other parts of the market. That is especially true for altcoins, where pricing is less visible and much of the activity still happens behind the scenes in OTC markets, even as a small number of onchain providers begin to offer options-based income strategies. Token coverage is still limited, and these venues are not always a full substitute for more tailored OTC structures. If you want to understand what strategies are actually available and how they compare, there are still not many places to do that with a realistic market context.

That’s why Wintermute built the Yield Dashboard. It gives counterparties a one-of-a-kind electronic way to explore options-based yield, with indicative daily pricing for options-based strategies across major digital assets, sourced directly from Wintermute’s derivatives desk. The dashboard will also expand to cover additional yield strategies beyond options-based structures, including institutional lending and more.

With the Yield Dashboard, counterparties can now:

• Learn about options-based yield, with up-to-date, real market pricing, yield parameters, and strategy context
• Assess which strategies may fit your holdings by comparing different yield-generating approaches against existing portfolio goals
• Limit information leakage by exploring opportunities electronically before requesting a quote, starting with 50+ digital assets

For institutional firms holding substantial positions in illiquid tokens that lack public options data on centralized exchanges, the dashboard is particularly useful. It also gives token projects a clearer starting point for understanding how yield strategies may support their treasury holdings. NODE’s Yield Dashboard enables Wintermute counterparties a clearer way to explore this growing part of the market with a more complete strategy context and pricing insight.

Yield Dashboard is available exclusively to Wintermute institutional counterparties using the NODE portal. Already have a NODE account? Log in to the NODE Portal below and take a look! If not, reach out to the team to start the conversation.
