TechFlow news, according to TheBlock, citing CF Benchmarks' analysis of Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Bitcoin futures and options, investors have already begun paying a premium for short-term downside protection despite yesterday's weak U.S. CPI inflation report, with options traders expecting some near-term price adjustment in Bitcoin.
CF Benchmarks analysts noted that although Bitcoin broke above the $66,000 mark yesterday, "out-of-the-money put options still show higher implied volatility compared to call options." Additionally, the volatility curve between long-term puts and calls is "relatively flat," with a slight skew toward calls, indicating investor optimism regarding Bitcoin’s long-term outlook.
