#密码资产动态追踪 Bitcoin just broke 92,000, but the options market is holding back a big move.

On Tuesday, BTC directly broke through $92,000, with daily trading volume soaring to $37 billion, a 25% increase, and bulls are getting a bit heated. The entire market is also very aggressive — DASH inexplicably surged 63%, and $1.3 million in shorts were wiped out immediately. Over the past 24 hours, the total leveraged futures short positions across the network have been liquidated for a total of $180 million. This battle between bulls and bears is truly intense.

Strangely, there's something "off" beneath the data: the 30-day implied volatility for BTC and ETH is under pressure, and open interest in futures hasn't increased much; the basis for BTC and ETH on mainstream futures exchanges remains below 5%, yet the put options on a certain platform are actually more expensive than the calls.

But the real sentiment in the market is this: call options with strike prices of $98,000 and $100,000 for BTC, as well as similar ETH products, are quietly seeing increased buying. In other words — the market says "cautious," but in reality, traders are honestly betting on BTC hitting $100,000.

The key now is whether it can hold above $92,000. If it can truly break above the $94,500 resistance, the $100,000 level will be even more widely discussed. $BTC

BTC-3.2%

DASH-3.05%

ETH-5.47%

Be cautious with your words but honest with your actions—that's the game now. Everyone's secretly buying calls and waiting to break 100,000. It's interesting.

Being conservative in words but honest in actions—that's the current market. If you can't hold onto 92,000, then even 100,000 USD is just talk on paper.

Be cautious with your words but honest with your actions. I’m familiar with this move. The bullish options are piling up crazily. The $100,000 dream must go on.

Saying to be cautious but buying calls with your hands—that's the true portrayal of people in the crypto world, haha.

Saying cautious with your words but honest with your actions, haha. The true intention behind this wave of options has been exposed. Holding above 92,000 is the real test; otherwise, it's just a feint.
