Deribit Exchange Sees Bitcoin and Ethereum Options Expiry Fuel Market Volatility

Deribit exchange News -

The monthly BTC and ETH options expiry on Deribit has introduced fresh volatility into cryptocurrency markets, with Bitcoin dropping to $115,549.15 amid price pressure near the $112,000 maximum pain level. While the $15.45 billion expiry event remains significant, it falls short of June's $17 billion record—highlighting the market's resilient liquidity during traditional summer slowdowns.

Ethereum faces unlikely downward pressure with its $2,800 max pain threshold, as both assets have consistently expired above these levels in recent months. The put/call ratios of 0.88 for BTC and 0.87 for ETH reveal persistent bullish undercurrents, even as Deribit's open interest surges past $37 billion quarter-to-date.
