BlockBeats news, on September 7, analysis and research platform Block Scholes stated in a new report written by it that the implied volatility levels of Bitcoin and Ethereum options at different expiration dates have increased significantly. This surge is particularly evident in short-term options, pointing to heightened uncertainty in the near term.
Analysts say the derivatives market is clearly biased toward out-of-the-money put options on Bitcoin and Ethereum in the short term. As spot prices struggle to recover from recent declines, the trend suggests a stronger short-term bearish outlook. Some aggressive traders may want to buy call options expiring at the end of September, when uncertainty should ease.
