Bitcoin options contracts totaling 22,000 BTC expired with a balanced sentiment between bearish and bullish positions. The options expired after Bitcoin rallied above $100,000, injecting new energy into the broader crypto market. The notional value of the expired contracts was $2.19 billion. Ethereum options also expired, with a stronger preference for call options compared to Bitcoin. Market attention continues to focus on BTC, leaving altcoins less prominent. Bitcoin's rise has increased market expectations of future volatility and long positions are targeting a potential price point of $105,000. Market participants are awaiting potential cryptocurrency-friendly policies from pro-Bitcoin Donald Trump as he takes office.
