Bitcoin tvega, da se zruši pod 50,000 $, saj možnosti za 3 milijarde $ BTC potečejo na črni petek

Bitcoin may be a hot topic for discussion on dinner tables today at Thanksgiving but not for the very best reasons – the crypto is down from a high of $59,258 to the current rate of $54,738. A total of $3.2 billion worth of Bitcoin options are set to expire today being Black Friday, and this has sparked an increased bearish momentum and volatility.

The volatility and the bearish trend were expected as the majority of the buys were put options. With a highly positive put-call skew, the trend was favoring a bearish trend before contract expiry. Those holding put options were expected to sell in order to get the profits from their options before the 73,702 contracts expired, which definitely puts more selling pressure on the Bitcoin price. The iztek opcij BTC je v preteklosti vedno prinesel nestanovitnost.

Večina teh mesečnih opcij – ali skupaj 2.6 milijarde USD – je bila poravnana na največjem trgu izvedenih finančnih instrumentov Deribit.

Medvedi so morali znižati ceno pod 57,000 $ na tem odlagališču, sicer bi izgubili ogromno denarja, kar so tudi storili. Kljub temu, da so se biki v četrtek zvečer borili za ceno do pomembnih 59,000 $, da bi se rešili velikih izgub proti izteku pogodbe, je cena do petka zjutraj padla vse do 57,500 $ in še navzdol.

It is expected, however, that Bitcoin price will resume recovery after today following the contract expiry. However, the psychological level to beat for the bulls remains $60,000.

Padec prav tako sovpada s priznanjem PlanB – priljubljenega zagovornika cenovnega modela Stock-To-Flow BTC, ki je napovedal 100,000 $ do konca tega leta. Izjavil je, da je Cena BTC verjetno ne bo dosegla 98,000 $ do konca novembra, kot je bilo prej napovedano. Vendar pa po njegovih besedah ​​model še vedno ni prizadet in cena bi lahko do konca leta še vedno dosegla mejo 100,000 dolarjev.

It also comes in the wake of tapering volumes. In fact, retail interest for Bitcoin as witnessed in the Google searches, for instance, has fallen to levels they were back in 2017.
