BlockBeats News, August 19th, Glassnode posted that last Friday's Bitcoin options premium hit a record high of about $226 million (of which about 69% was call options), indicating that both bulls and bears are repricing risk. By Monday, the premium plummeted to about $18 million, with put options dominating the market while call options remained relatively stable—a weakening of hedging demand; the market tends to believe it will enter a phase of consolidation/volatility contraction.
