EduMarkets Digital Assets
The digital assets module covers how digital-asset markets are traded and priced. It opens with market structure and the main participants, then covers perpetual futures and the funding rate that anchors them to spot, options and how their volatility is quoted, and stablecoins and the reserves backing them. Later pages cover decentralised exchanges and automated market makers, the tokenisation of traditional assets such as bonds and funds, and how regulators treat the sector.
