Roughly $2.1 billion worth of Bitcoin options are on track to expire this Friday, according to crypto options trading platform  


The put-call ratio, which compares the total volume of call options to put options, currently stands at 0.83. This indicates that bulls currently have the upper hand given that call options outnumber put options.


The options have a max pain point of $98,000, meaning that the biggest number of options are set to expire worthless at this specific level.

Bitcoin is currently trading slightly above the $100,000 level while Ethereum (ETH) is changing hands at $3,920. 


According to Greeks.live, market makers are currently in the process of repositioning their portfolios during the Christmas season when trading volumes tend to drop significantly. US equities could end up experiencing stronger volatility due to reduced liquidity. Traders are expecting sharper movies based on increasing implied volatility (IV). 


Furthermore, the platform has noted that the influence of the U.S. stock market on crypto prices is becoming more pronounced. Hence, cryptocurrencies could also succumb to volatility in tandem with stocks. 


Hence, many traders are using options as a tool for hedging against volatile price movies during this holiday season.
