CoinOptionsTrack is becoming BasedMoney.io, which gives me the perfect chance to introduce you to this tool — one that has become essential to how I read the crypto markets, and in particular Open Interest on options. If Open Interest is still a fuzzy concept for you, I’d recommend starting with my theory and practical tutorials on the subject!
It’s not a Swiss Army knife, but a simple, effective device built around two main pages:
- The Raw Numbers
- The Charts (the ones that really matter to us)
So it’s fairly easy to get to grips with!
Once you’re comfortable with BasedMoney, know that I also recommend 2 tools I can’t do without for my technical analysis. These are TradingView, a complete technical analysis tool and Coinalyze, which I’m mainly interested in for analyzing Open Interest on Futures.
CoinOptionsTrack | all the data on crypto options?
In reality, this tool mainly gives us information on the options offered by Deribit. That said, since Deribit is the leading crypto options trading platform by volume, we can assume its data is representative of the market as a whole. More recently, with its rebranding, BasedMoney also lets you read the options data from the Bit.com exchange, which brings the total to two exchanges tracked across 3 cryptos: Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana.

CoinOptionsTrack | My Favorite Chart
In this mini tutorial I won’t go on for long because, despite how important CoinOptionsTrack is to me, I have to admit I only regularly use a single chart…
If you regularly watch the Minute Marché, you’ve probably analyzed it with me more than once!
It’s of course our famous chart plotting Open Interest against the Strike Price and the expiration date: useful and slick, you’ll agree!
