Bitcoin options markets have shifted toward a bullish stance, with one-week 25-delta call options now more in demand than puts, indicating traders expect price gains. This shift, first seen in August 2026, shows calls making up about 61.4% of open interest by mid-September, with strong activity around $80,000 to $85,000 strike prices. The market's tilt toward calls suggests traders are paying more for upside exposure, while downside protection becomes relatively cheaper. However, the near-neutral skew reading and large futures open interest imply that the market could still react sharply to macroeconomic changes.
Bitcoin options traders leaning into upside calls provide context alongside Pluang's cryptocurrency market data.
