Bitcoin options pricing has dropped to its lowest level in five years, with near-term implied volatility falling below realized volatility. This suggests options are relatively cheap compared to recent market moves. Traders are maintaining long Bitcoin positions while buying puts expiring in October as downside protection, with a notable $204 million block trade. Meanwhile, Ethereum options show a different trend, with implied volatility above realized volatility and a major buyer exiting the market soon.
Bitcoin options pricing is noted for its recent five-year low in implied volatility.
