As the industry continues to evolve, the United States' leadership position offers both unique opportunities and challenges.

  • $1.2 billion in notional value of BTC options and $930 million in ETH options are set to expire

    Greeks.live data shows that on May 17th, 18,000 BTC options with a put/call ratio of 0.63 and a maximum pain point of $63,000 (nominal value of $1.2 billion) will expire. Additionally, 320,000 ETH options with a put/call ratio of 0.28 and a maximum pain point of $3,000 (nominal value of $930 million) will also expire. Greeks.live states that this week, inspired by the meme stock craze in the US, BTC ETFs have seen significant inflows, causing BTC to surge above $65,000. However, the rest of the crypto market remains weak, with trading volume continuing to decline, and the divergence in the options data of BTC and ETH reflects this. Looking at the structure of bulk trades and market trades, the downward trend in IV for major deadlines has ended and entered a consolidation phase, with limited downside potential at present. BTC longs and shorts are relatively balanced, while the weak ETH price has led to a continuous decline in market confidence, with selling calls becoming the absolute main transaction.
