Deribit exchange News -

Approximately 30,700 Bitcoin options contracts with a notional value of $3.2 billion are set to expire on June 6, alongside $624 million in ethereum options. The put/call ratios of 0.76 for BTC and 0.69 for ETH indicate a slight cooling in bullish sentiment, though open interest remains heavily concentrated above current market levels.

Deribit data shows maximum pain points at $105,000 for Bitcoin and $2,600 for Ethereum, where the majority of losses would occur. While this expiry event is smaller than last week's $150 billion market movement, traders appear predominantly bearish in the short term despite $1.7 billion in open interest at the $115,000 BTC strike price.
