BlockBeats News, December 26th, Greeks live macro researcher @BTC__options stated that today is the annual options expiration day, also the largest cryptocurrency options expiration day in history, with a total notional value of approximately $28 billion. Among them, Bitcoin BTC has 267,000 options expiring, a Put/Call ratio of 0.35, a maximum pain price of $95,000, and a notional value of approximately $23.6 billion; Ethereum ETH has 1.28 million options expiring, a Put/Call ratio of 0.45, a maximum pain price of $3,100, and a notional value of approximately $3.71 billion.

Today, over half of the options have been settled. Before the settlement, the volume and trading share of option blocks continued to rise, mainly driven by the need for position changes; after the settlement, quarterly options expiring in March became the largest position, accounting for over 30% of the total position, mainly dominated by out-of-the-money call options.

The market performance in the fourth quarter of this year can be said to be the worst in recent years. Due to industry cyclicality and slow development, market sentiment is poor, making it more suitable for seller strategies.
