Odaily Planet Daily reports that Greeks.live posted on the X platform that 38,000 BTC options have been settled, with a Put-Call Ratio of 0.71. The maximum pain point is $74,000, with a notional value of $2.5 billion. Additionally, 215,000 ETH options have been settled, with a Put-Call Ratio of 0.82. The maximum pain point is $2,100, with a notional value of $410 million.
The crypto market continues to decline, with the maximum pain point dropping rapidly. Today’s options settlement accounts for 9% of the total open interest, with a total value of nearly $2.9 billion. Implied volatility for Bitcoin and Ethereum has decreased this week, with BTC’s main-term IV dropping to 50% and ETH’s to 70%. Although the downward price trend has slowed, market confidence remains weak.
From trading activity, put options dominate. After the market declined again yesterday, some bottom-fishing behavior has begun to appear. Key options indicators show that skew is rebounding, and the proportion of call options in block trades is increasing.
The market remains in a bearish phase, but the most severe decline has ended. Currently, the crypto market lacks incremental capital, and it is too early to discuss a bull market or a significant rebound.

Cryptocurrency Overview
BTC (+7.17% | Current Price 72,443.1 USDT)
Bitcoin surged over 7% on Wednesday, driving the total market capitalization of the crypto market back above $2.5 trillion, with a daily increase of approximately 5.5%. This rebound was mainly driven by short squeeze. Previously, influenced by the Iran situation, the market experienced a concentrated sell-off, and the funding rate for Bitcoin perpetual contracts briefly dropped to extremely low levels. As geopolitical risks did not further escalate, funds that had previously taken bearish positions began to close their positions, leading to a rapid price rebound. Vetle Lunde, Head of Research at K33 Research, pointed out that Bitcoin's weekly RSI once dipped to 26.84, marking the third-lowest oversold level in history, providing technical support for the rebound.
