Hong Kong, 27th January 2026 – Passey has been announced as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026, taking place from April 20 to 23, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The partnership positions Passey’s AI-powered options trading platform in front of Asia’s premier gathering of Web3 innovators, institutional investors, and crypto traders seeking sophisticated yet accessible investment tools.
Passey is an AI-driven platform that unlocks advanced insights for Bitcoin and Ethereum options trading, making institutional-grade strategies accessible to modern investors without the traditional barriers of KYC requirements or accredited investor minimums. The platform operates through Telegram, offering users a streamlined way to execute options trades with AI-guided recommendations tailored to individual risk appetites and market views.
Democratizing Options Trading Through AI
What sets Passey apart is its focus on simplifying the complexity of options trading through artificial intelligence. Options strategies—particularly covered calls and cash-secured puts—have traditionally been the domain of sophisticated investors and wealth management clients at private banks. Passey abstracts away this complexity with AI-driven insights that help users identify opportunities in Bitcoin and Ethereum options markets, supporting informed investment choices without requiring deep technical knowledge.
The platform enables users to collect high premiums ranging from 10% to 70% annually by selling calls and puts on BTC and ETH while waiting to take profit or accumulate positions. This “earn while you wait” approach appeals to long-term holders who want to generate yield on assets they’re already planning to hold, transforming passive holdings into active income streams.
Passey allows traders to execute strategies with as little as 0.1x contract sizes—a fraction of what traditional options markets require. This low minimum makes sophisticated wealth-building tools available to retail investors who would otherwise be excluded from options markets due to capital constraints. Users can access the same strategies employed by ultra-high-net-worth individuals without the barriers that typically gate-keep institutional products.
Built on Best-in-Class Infrastructure
Security and reliability form the foundation of Passey’s architecture. For custody, the platform uses Privy—a Stripe company that powers over 75 million accounts and is trusted by more than 1,000 developer teams. This institutional-grade custody solution ensures that user assets remain secure while maintaining the self-custodial ethos that crypto users expect.
For options trading execution, Passey partners with Thetanuts Finance, a decentralized options protocol that has traded more than $1.3 billion in notional value. The platform is built on Base, Coinbase’s Layer 2 network, which hosts over $12 billion in assets and offers fast, low-cost transactions that make frequent options trading economically viable.
This combination of Privy’s custody infrastructure, Thetanuts’ proven options execution, and Base’s scalability creates a robust technical foundation that supports secure, transparent trades at scale. The platform implements industry-standard security measures to safeguard both assets and personal data, addressing one of the primary concerns for users exploring AI-powered crypto investing.
AI-Guided Wealth Building
Passey’s AI reviews real-time market data and trend analysis to help identify opportunities in Bitcoin and Ethereum options markets. The system provides personalized recommendations based on user-defined risk tolerance and economic outlook, essentially functioning as an AI investment assistant that operates 24/7.
The platform is designed to be intuitive for users at all experience levels. No prior investing experience is necessary—the interface guides users through options strategies with clear explanations and AI-supported decision-making tools. For experienced traders, Passey offers automated investment strategies and AI-driven market analysis that can enhance existing approaches.
About the Hong Kong Web3 Festival

Why Passey’s Involvement Matters
Passey’s participation as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor reflects the growing intersection between AI and decentralized finance. As the crypto industry matures beyond simple buy-and-hold strategies, sophisticated yield-generating tools like options trading are becoming increasingly relevant for both retail and institutional participants.
The Festival leverages Hong Kong’s unique position as a global financial center and innovation powerhouse, bridging Mainland China’s vast market potential with worldwide Web3 advancements. For a platform like Passey that’s democratizing access to institutional-grade trading strategies, the event provides an ideal venue to connect with users seeking to maximize returns while managing risk in volatile crypto markets.
