Bitcoin bears currently favored in BTC’s end-of-year $30.3B options expiry
Bitcoin options markets remain tilted toward bears despite US investors’ expectations of economic stimulus injections and semi-bullish outlook for 2026.
Key takeaways:
$30.3B in Bitcoin options will expire at year-end, with most call (buy) bets placed well above the $89,000 to $94,000 price range.
Bearish strategies stay favored unless BTC breaks $94,000 as prices above $88,000 have erased over half of put (sell) option bets.
