Option Price
by BSM Price+Greeks in Onchain & crypto
When to use: you already have model inputs (S or forward mark, K, T, r, σ) and need fair value + hedge ratios — not market-premium IV. European BSM price + analytic Greeks (delta, gamma, vega, theta, rho). Works for equity spots and power/commodity forwards (use the maturity mark as spot). USDC exact on Solana/Base.
