Co se stalo
A trader on the GreeksLive platform has sold a large batch of Bitcoin call options with a notional value of approximately $173 million, according to on-chain analyst Ai Yi.

The position reflects a cautious or bearish outlook on Bitcoin's near-term upside. The trader is effectively betting that BTC will not rise more than 9.5% over the next 52 days, keeping the price below $70,000 at expiry.
If Bitcoin stays under $70,000 when the options expire, the seller will collect the full premium of $3.03 million. The trade is designed to profit from limited upward movement and the passage of time.
This sizable call-selling flow may add resistance near the $70,000 level, making it a key psychological and options-related barrier for short-term price action. As expiration approaches, traders could see heightened volatility around that zone.

The move also suggests that at least one major participant expects subdued price momentum in the coming weeks. For intraday speculative trading, liquidity, risk appetite, and broader market sentiment will determine whether Bitcoin can challenge the level or fade into the expiry.
