The $9.87 Billion Nominal Value Bitcoin and Ethereum Options Will Expire on April 24th

2026.04.24 00:10:35

On April 24, Greeks.live shared April 24 options expiration data on social media: - 109,000 BTC options expired, with a put-call ratio (PCR) of 0.93, max pain at $72,000, and nominal value of $8.55 billion. - 563,000 ETH options expired, with a PCR of 0.72, max pain at $2,200, and nominal value of $13.2 billion. This week, markets extended their rebound: Bitcoin surged past $78,000, Hong Kong’s Web3 Summit buzzed with bullish sentiment, and the altcoin market heated up. Notably, this is a monthly expiration cycle, with 25% of options set to expire now. For open interest maturity breakdown, 12% of outstanding contracts expire end-May, while 24% expire end-June. Key options metrics: - Bitcoin’s front-month implied volatility (IV) has trended lower this month, with most tenors down 1–2 percentage points to below 40%. - Ethereum’s front-month IV has fallen further, currently ~60%. Despite price gains, skew has eased, and there’s no sign of FOMO (fear of missing out) in the market. Bitcoin’s Q2 performance has outpaced Q1 in both price and activity, with this month’s sustained rebound reflecting fund inflows. If macro headwinds bottom out mid-year, Bitcoin’s bottom will be confirmed.

Trump rejects new Iranian peace proposal but keeps negotiation window open

Trump has formally rejected the latest proposal submitted by Iran, but has made it clear that meeting arrangements will remain in place this week. At present, the Qatari government is actively involved in mediation, working to push Iran to make moderate concessions in sensitive areas, so as to create prerequisites for the resumption of direct dialogue between the US and Iran. In response to the US side's veto stance, Iranian officials have publicly stated that they will firmly not alter their established policies or soften their core demands due to Trump's rejection. The current progress on nuclear-related terms will be the key variable determining whether the two sides can return to the negotiating table.

Trump is expected to hold more talks with Iran, with new discussions possibly kicking off as early as Monday.

According to Axios, one day after rejecting Iran’s proposal to end the war, U.S. President Donald Trump said he expects U.S. negotiators to hold more talks with Iran this week. Qatar and other regional mediators are attempting to restart U.S.-Iran negotiations, but the two sides have major differences on key issues. While Iran wants to focus talks on the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. maritime blockades, the Trump administration is demanding Iran make concessions on the nuclear issue. Two regional sources confirmed Trump’s remarks about more talks this week. They anticipate a new round of indirect dialogue between the U.S. and Iran as early as Monday, though it remains unclear whether the two sides can bridge their gaps. Trump stated: “I expect we will have more talks with Iran this week. They want to reach an agreement, but that’s not the agreement I want to make. That’s probably an agreement we would have agreed to a year ago. They misjudged the situation and are asking too much.”
