$18,140,000,000 in $BTC and $ETH options will expire this Friday. Max pain for Bitcoin: $75,000 Max pain for Ethereum: $2,250

Friday is gonna be messy

[01]

Friday gonna be bloody

Expire? When I do have $10

$18B expiring is no joke 😭

Watch the pin, $BTC $75K $ETH $2.25K.

Max pain usually triggers volatility as makers hedge. But with $18B at stake? Expect choppy price action around those strikes Friday afternoon rather than a smooth glide to 75k or 2.25k

$18B expiring and max pain conveniently sitting way below spot

Options expiry could bring some interesting volatility. @RavenRavieee, watching key levels and positioning matters.

Can't wait for Friday.

market makers have the pen again, volatility getting manufactured for the weekend

There’s a lot of capital expiring here

Okay so I guess we are observing..

Great read here. I appreciate the patience and discipline behind this analysis. You and @allimcmahonn consistently bring useful perspective.

oof, that's a lot almost $20B 😬

You make complex financial topics easier to understand with every breakdown. You and @Kendallde_ are setting the benchmark.

That’s a huge options expiry. With $18B+ rolling off, BTC and ETH could get choppy around those max pain levels. Good data to watch. @JasonColelfod is another follow I like for keeping crypto moves tied to the broader market.

do not have said this

Friday options dump is real size. Max pain at $75k only bites if spot demand keeps fading into the print. Watch whether dealer hedging flips after expiry, not just the level itself.

That means a 13% drop for $BTC. I personally don't believe it's going to happen.
