Cryptocurrency market outlook:
The cryptocurrency market is relatively sluggish, and after the quarterly settlement, ETH has led a wave of market decline, with ETH likely to hit a new low since 2024. The volatility of mainstream coins is not significant; currently, the implied volatility of BTC is maintained above 50%. Market sentiment is relatively pessimistic, and it's a time that tests the patience of market participants.
This week, options trading will mainly revolve around the quarterly settlement, with not much worth noting. Short-term implied volatility will bear the pressure of margin release after the quarterly settlement and is expected to see a slight decline.
