Around 20,000 Bitcoin options worth $1.6 billion and 182,000 Ethereum options worth $410 million are set to expire on May 8. Bitcoin’s put-call ratio stands at 0.73 with a max pain level of $79,500, while Ethereum’s ratio is 0.93 with max pain at $2,350. Despite Bitcoin’s rally toward $82,000 this week, implied volatility and options activity remain muted, signaling cautious sentiment and a broader market consolidation phase rather than aggressive speculative positioning.
