Traders on a decentralized protocol for on-chain options, perpetuals and structured products, see a 30% chance of bitcoin falling below $80,000 by the end of June.

“Options markets show a clear downside skew, with a 30% chance BTC falls below $80K by June 26, compared to a 19% chance it rallies above $120K over the same period,” according to research data from leading decentralized trading platforms.

Options are derivative contracts that let you bet on bitcoin’s price like a side wager at a sports game. Here’s how it works: You pay a small fee to lock in a “what if” deal. If BTC jumps above a certain predetermined price level, you win big by buying cheap. That’s a call option.
