According to data from Greeks.live, a total of 23,000 BTC options are set to expire, with a Put Call Ratio of 1.13, a maximum pain point of $76,000, and a nominal value of $1.74 billion. Additionally, 175,000 ETH options will also expire, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.94, a maximum pain point of $2,325, and a nominal value of $400 million.

Greeks.live analyst Adam stated that this week's market fluctuations are small, with Bitcoin hovering around $78,000, and market sentiment gradually becoming calmer. The short-term RV has significantly decreased, combined with monthly settlements releasing nearly a quarter of the position margin, leading to a noticeable decline in the implied volatility of major expiration options this week. The major expiration IV of Bitcoin has fallen below 40%, while the major expiration IV of ETH has decreased even more, with short-term IV dropping below 50% and medium to long-term also falling below 60%. From the main options data, the Skew remains relatively stable, and the market's directional sentiment remains slightly bearish. This week, only 6% of options are expiring, with about 25% of positions at the end of the month and about 30% of positions at the end of June. Block trades are relatively inactive, all of which are signals of consolidation. In April of this year, Bitcoin performed significantly better in both price and popularity compared to the previous three months, but the altcoin market has seen limited recovery. Currently, the focus is mainly on Bitcoin, and trading altcoins will require further waiting.
