Simply put, options are a zero-sum game: the larger the trading volume, the greater the market activity; the larger the open interest, the more counterparties there are, making it easier to execute trades and reducing liquidity risk.

Fellow investor @USTC Stock God said
@鄉村牛姑姑Great question, classmate! Options are different from turbo bull/bear certificates. The real-time price of a turbo bull/bear certificate is quoted by the issuer, whereas the real-time premium for an option is determined by the options clearing house through centralized matching based on the supply and demand from buyers and sellers. This works much like stock pricing: sellers are willing to sell at a certain price, buyers are willing to buy at another, and market makers step in to match the two sides.
