# Overview

At Jasper, we understand that accurate and efficient pricing is crucial for the trading of crypto options. Unlike traditional decentralized exchanges, Jasper does not solely rely on an internal smart contract-based pricing algorithm. Instead, we have developed a centralized pricing service that synthesizes data from reputable external sources such as Deribit and CoinMarketCap. By integrating methodologies like the Black-Scholes algorithm—a time-tested model in finance—we provide our users with reliable protocol fee quotes for various assets at different strike prices and time intervals. This hybrid approach allows us to maintain high accuracy in our pricing, ensuring that our users can trade with confidence.
