18,000 BTC options are about to expire with a Put Call Ratio of 0.63, a Maxpain point of $63,000 and a notional value of $1.2 billion.
320,000 ETH options are due to expire with a Put Call Ratio of 0.28, a Maxpain point of $3,000 and a notional value of $930 million.
The BTC ETF also reaped significant inflows this week, inspired by the Meme wave in the US, with BTC surging above $65,000. But crypto markets outside of Meme were weaker, with volume continuing to fall, as evidenced by the divergence in options data for BTC and ETH.
From the Block and market trading structure, the IV downtrend in all major terms ended into a sideways trend, and there is not much room to fall at the moment.
