#比特币期权交割 I just saw the news about today's Bitcoin options expiration, $23.7 billion, which sounds huge🤯 I'm a bit confused, why is this number so important?
I looked back at previous expiration records and finally understood how much the market volatility differs before and after expiration! Take the December 27, 2024, expiration as an example: before expiration, the price was tightly held between $70,000 and $80,000, and after expiration, it directly broke through $80,000, almost like a magic spell was lifted. There was also the March 28, 2025, expiration, where the price was in the $80,000 to $90,000 range before expiration, then surged all the way above $85,000, aiming for $100,000...
Looking back at today's expiration, the biggest pain point is around $96,000. Reports say that due to the thin liquidity during the Christmas holiday, the price is now being squeezed between $85,000 and $90,000. I'm wondering, once the expiration is over, will this "cage" open, and will volatility explode?
A bit nervous but also a bit excited. It feels like this major expiration is a key point for the market, determining the next trend. As a newbie, I want to ask, if I hold coins at this time, how should I respond to such volatility? Seeking advice from all the experts🙏
