This week, influenced by the US-Iran ceasefire, Bitcoin broke through $72,000 and its recent sideways trading range. Bitcoin's options market share continues to exceed 80%, with open interest concentrated at the end of April and the end of June, and trading primarily focused on the April end-of-month contracts. Data shows that Bitcoin's Implied Volatility (IV) for most tenors has dropped to around 40%, while Ethereum's major tenor IV has fallen to around 60%, with Skew rising. Currently, driven by other markets, various indicators such as capital flows in the cryptocurrency space are showing bearish characteristics.
