$BTC $2.9 BILLION OPTIONS EXPIRY: Is a Volatility Storm About to Hit?

Today isn’t just another trading session — it’s options expiry chaos. Nearly $2.9 billion in BTC and $ETH contracts are set to expire, and the positioning is loud.

Bitcoin’s max pain sits at $74,000, while Ethereum’s is parked at $2,100. With current prices hovering below those levels, that creates tension. Options markets often act like gravity — pulling price toward high open interest zones into expiry.

When this much notional value is on the line, expect sharp wicks, fake breakouts, and aggressive stop hunts. Dealers hedging. Traders scrambling. Liquidity shifting fast.

Expiry days aren’t about direction — they’re about positioning pressure.

Will price magnetize toward max pain… or violently reject it?
