Launch a coin. Trade its options from day one.

StrikePad is an options launchpad that lets anyone launch a coin and have it listed directly for options trading — regardless of how small the token is.

Even a newly launched coin with a $5K market cap can become an options market on StrikePad, giving traders the ability to express both bullish and bearish views through options.

How It Works

1. Launch a coin on Strike Pad.
2. Get it listed for options trading directly after launch.
3. Traders can choose from four core strategies:

Buy Call - position for upside.
Sell Call - collect premium while taking the corresponding short-call exposure.
Buy Put - position for downside.
Sell Put - collect premium while taking the corresponding short-put exposure.

One issue we’ve been trying to solve is how to make options feel approachable for people who are used to simple Solana launches.
A normal coin launch is easy to understand: you see the coin, you buy it, you sell it.

Options add another layer, and if the interface is not clear enough, that extra layer can become friction very quickly.
So we’re working on the parts that help users understand the trade before they take it.
Call or put.
What coin they are trading.
What they are actually confirming.
How the position is settled.

We’re not trying to turn the interface into a lesson on options. We just want the product to communicate enough at the right moment so people don’t feel lost.
That balance is getting a lot of attention right now.

Updating the trade confirmation flow.
Before someone opens a position, we want the important details to be easy to scan: which coin, call or put, the position they’re taking, and the SOL settlement side.
Still refining how much should be shown without making the screen feel crowded.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

The latest work has been focused on how the launch side and the options side connect.
A coin begins on a pump.fun-style bonding curve, but the important part for us is what happens after that.
We don’t want the options market to feel like a completely separate product that suddenly appears once the launch is done.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

Small build update: we’re cleaning up the path from coin discovery to the actual options market.
There are a few places where that flow can start feeling more complicated than it needs to be, so we’re reducing the number of decisions users have to make before they reach the call or put side.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

We’ve been spending more time on the SOL settlement side because that’s one of the places where the product needs to feel very clear.

The last thing we want is for someone to buy a call or put and then have to stop and figure out what happens next, what asset the position is settled in, or where that information is shown.

So we’re refining how settlement details appear before the trade is confirmed and how the flow continues after that.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

Another part we’re working through is making calls and puts easier to understand without turning the product into a tutorial.

A lot of people using Solana launchpads already understand buying and selling coins. Options add another decision on top of that, and the interface needs to help without getting in the way.
We’re testing different ways to make the direction of the trade clearer before the user commits.

If you want exposure to a move higher, the call side should be easy to recognize.
If you are positioning for the other direction, the put side should be just as clear.
It sounds basic, but these are exactly the parts that make an options product either feel approachable or unnecessarily complicated.

We want Strike Pad to work for people who already trade options and people seeing them on a newly launched coin for the first time.

Working on reliability around the launch-to-options path.
More coins eventually means more markets moving through the same product flow, so we’re looking closely at the parts that need to stay consistent when activity picks up.
The goal is for a coin moving from launch into options to feel predictable every time, not different depending on how busy things are.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

We noticed that options can become intimidating when too much information is shown at once, especially for someone coming directly from a simple token launch experience.
So we’re refining how the trade screen communicates the important stuff.
The user should immediately understand which coin they are trading, whether they are taking a call or a put, what they are about to commit, and that settlement happens in SOL.

We don’t want the interface to feel stripped down to the point where important information disappears, but we also don’t want every screen turning into a wall of numbers.
The work right now is finding that balance.
Show what matters when it matters.
Keep the launch side simple.
Keep the options side understandable.
And make moving between both feel like part of the same product.

Updating coin discovery right now.
As more coins become available, finding the one you actually want to trade can start getting messy fast. We’re looking at ways to make listed coins easier to scan and make the jump from discovering a coin to opening its options market much more direct.

Less searching around. More getting to the market you came for.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

One thing we’ve been working through is the connection between the bonding curve and the options market.
Those two parts of the product should feel like one continuous experience, not two unrelated tools sitting next to each other.

A coin starts on the launch side. Once it reaches the point where an options market can open, we want that next step to feel natural. You should be able to understand that the same coin you were just watching or trading can now have calls and puts around it.
We’re refining how that handoff is communicated inside the product and how users move between the two sides.

A lot of what Strike Pad is trying to do depends on getting this part right. The launch is only the beginning. The options market needs to feel like the obvious next stage.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

We’re improving how SOL settlement is shown throughout the options flow.

Users shouldn’t have to stop and figure out what asset a position is being settled in or what happens after the trade. We’re working on making SOL settlement much clearer before confirmation and easier to follow after the position is opened.
Small detail, but an important one.

[Strike Pad @TryStrikePad]

We’ve been fixing the options flow because that is one part of the product that can get confusing very quickly if the steps are not obvious.
A coin can move from a pump fun bonding curve into an options market, but we don’t want users wondering what happened between those two stages or where they are supposed to go next.

The current focus is making that transition easier to follow. Once a coin becomes available for options, it should be obvious where the market is, whether you want a call or a put, and what you are confirming before the position goes through.

There are a lot of small UX decisions inside that flow, so we’re going through them one by one instead of trying to hide complexity behind more buttons.
The goal is simple: launch the coin, find the market, take the position.

Launch the coin. Open the market.
Strike Pad connects bonding-curve launches with options trading, giving every new coin the chance to support calls and puts.
