The Bitcoin (BTC) price<\/a> has bounced back once again by 4% in the last 24 hours moving closer to $60,000, ahead of the weekly Bitcoin options expiry. However, the positioning of the options market shows that it could be a dull summer in the derivatives market.<\/p>\n

23,000 Bitcoin Options to Expire<\/h3>\n

Greeks.Live reports that 23,000 BTC options are on the verge of expiry, accompanied by a Put Call Ratio of 0.49. These options represent a notional value of $1.4 billion, with a Maxpain point positioned at $61,000.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Despite the recent listing of Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong<\/a> failing to stimulate significant volume, outflows persist from US BTC ETFs. This market weakness has contributed to a decline in overall market confidence. Additionally, the Implied Volatility (IV) across major terms is on a downward trend, currently sitting at the average level observed during the winter bull market.<\/p>\n

Despite these challenges, there are indications of support, making the current buying sentiment a prudent choice. However, the prolonged period of sideways trading is unlikely to persist, with a potential absence of a rebound leading to downward pressure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Bitcoin implied volatility has experienced a notable decrease since mid-April. Data from The Block\u2019s Data Dashboard illustrates this trend, with the implied volatility of bitcoin at-the-money options declining from over 77% to under 60% across various expiration periods, including one-week, one-month, and multi-month expiries.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, top lawmakers have recently joined the bandwagon urging the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to approve options for Bitcoin ETFs<\/a>. In a communication addressed to SEC Chair Gary Gensler on Wednesday, Representatives Wiley Nickel (D-N.C.) and Mike Flood (R-Neb) highlighted the SEC\u2019s approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January, which has since attracted billions of dollars in investments.<\/p>\n

ETH Options Snapshot<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Similar to Bitcoin, 330,000 ETH options are set to expire, featuring a Put Call Ratio of 0.36, a Maxpain point at $3,000, and a notional value totaling $1 billion. Similar to Bitcoin\u2019s IV, the implied volatility of Ethereum ATM options has notably decreased since mid-April.<\/p>\n

This decline in Ethereum IV suggests that traders anticipate a reduction in price volatility as they await regulatory clarity on Ethereum\u2019s status in the U.S.<\/p>\n
