About $3 billion worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum options expired on Deribit, revealing contrasting trader sentiment. Bitcoin options favored calls, indicating optimism, while Ethereum options leaned toward puts, signaling caution due to recent market volatility. The put-to-call ratio was 0.76 for Bitcoin and 0.89 for Ethereum, reflecting this divergence. The expiry's impact was muted, possibly due to prior market stabilization after a Bitcoin price drop below $70,000. Large options expiries like this regularly influence crypto markets through gamma hedging, affecting buying and selling pressures.
