$3,150,000,000 Worth of Bitcoin Options Expire Today

Today, the crypto market is focusing on a major event: more than $3.15 billion worth of Bitcoin options are officially expiring.

Options expirations often lead to short-term volatility, especially when BTC price approaches key strike levels. Around these levels, activities such as hedging, closing positions, or rolling into new contracts can cause stronger-than-usual market fluctuations.

Key points to watch:

High Open Interest indicates strong participation from institutional traders.

The Put/Call Ratio reflects market expectations for the upcoming trend.

After expiration, BTC price often becomes more stable as derivatives-related pressure eases.

For long-term investors, options expiry is usually just short-term noise within the bigger picture. Meanwhile, short-term traders should pay close attention to volatility, manage risk tightly, and avoid getting caught in sudden liquidity sweeps.

📌 Bitcoin continues to operate on a long-term cycle, and options expiry is just a small snapshot within that broader flow.
