$18.1 Billion in BTC and ETH Options Set to Expire on Friday
Coinbase reported that $18.1 billion in Bitcoin and Ethereum options expire on Friday, September 25.
The majority of this notional value is concentrated in Bitcoin, with approximately $16.13 billion in inverse-option open interest scheduled for settlement.
Bitcoin's put/call ratio stood at 0.66, indicating that calls outweigh puts across the market, according to Coinbase Markets.
The call-heavy structure in both markets has intensified in recent trading, particularly for Bitcoin.
