Binance is adding regulated options trading on gold and silver through its Abu Dhabi exchange. The contracts, offered by Nest Exchange Limited under ADGM rules, settle in USDT rather than physical delivery.
The products are European-style options, exercisable only at expiration. Retail users can only buy calls or puts, limiting their loss to the premium. Institutional participants can both buy and write options.
Binance said the launch follows demand for its commodity perpetual futures introduced earlier this year. The exchange has been expanding into traditional finance products, including tokenized equities and real-world assets.
Spot gold trades near $4,135 an ounce. Gold-backed ETFs have returned to positive inflows in 2026 after years of withdrawals. Silver has also drawn interest, supported by safe-haven demand and industrial use in solar energy and electronics.
