Bitcoin options traders tilt toward calls as short-dated upside demand builds
- —One-week 25-delta risk reversal rose 1.07 vol points to -0.24
- —Calls made up 61.4% of BTC options open interest, puts 38.6%
- —Derive put-call open interest stood at roughly 305,530 BTC
- —Large call open interest stacked at $80,000, $85,000 and $100,000 December strikes
Why it matters: A call-heavy skew makes downside protection cheaper and upside exposure pricier, while heavy open interest near spot could shape price action into expiry.
