Matrixport: BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF options trading volume is active, investors remain optimistic
Matrixport released a chart today stating that last week, BlackRock launched Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) options, which received a warm market response with active trading volume and steadily increasing open interest. This indicates that investors' expectations for future Bitcoin price increases are strengthening.
This report focuses on analyzing the relevant data of options expiring in December. Interestingly, implied volatility is showing a continuous downward trend and is currently close to 65%.
Previously, due to market sentiment after Trump's election, Bitcoin quickly rose from $70,000 to $98,000 but has recently slowed down its upward momentum. In the future, the price of Bitcoin may enter a more stable rising stage which could further reduce implied volatility.
The decrease in implied volatility is good news for traders because it means that the cost of bullish bitcoin options decreases. Investors can establish positions at lower prices thereby having an opportunity to expand their holdings. At the same time, increased demand for option trading and large transactions may also further drive up bitcoin prices.
