Bitcoin’s next big move could be more aggressive than people expect.
Large options players are positioned in a way where they must react to price moves, not control them. Most of this pressure sits between $58K and $74K, with the biggest cluster around $63K. If BTC moves up, they are forced to buy more. If BTC drops, they are forced to sell more. So instead of slowing volatility, their actions amplify it. That’s why any strong move from here, especially downward can become sharper and faster than normal.
