As I know, the derivatives market is not new, in fact it is extremely large, much larger than the spot trading market by many many times. In the traditional financial markets (non-crypto) it is where the vast majority of trading actually takes place, some estimates place the size of the market at $1.2 quadrillion

So you know, truly large
Oh wow, this sounds insane. Will definitely need to read more about the market also. Thank you very much for sharing
