📈 Crypto Market Insights: BlackRock's Nasdaq-listed spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) sees a surge in put options, sparking curiosity among traders. Over 13,000 contracts of the $30 OTM put option, expiring May 16, were traded as IBIT rose 1.7% to $57.91. But is this bearish? Not necessarily!
- Many traders are using "cash-secured put selling" to earn passive income, not just betting on a price drop.
- This strategy allows traders to potentially acquire assets at a lower price while pocketing premiums.
- Interestingly, IBIT call options remain pricier, hinting at bullish sentiment.
