This screenshot is $BTC -251220-80000-P (a Bitcoin put option, strike $80,000, expiry 25 Dec 2025).

What’s happening here 👇

Last price: 5.000

Down ~-90.9%

24h High: 190 → 24h Low: 5

Chart shows continuous sell-off to near zero value

Why this option collapsed

1. Deep Out-of-the-Money (OTM)

A put at 80k only has value if BTC falls below 80k by expiry.

If BTC price is far above 80k, this put becomes almost worthless.

2. Time Decay (Theta)

As expiry approaches, OTM options lose value very fast.

Even if BTC doesn’t move up, the option still bleeds.

3. Volatility Compression

If implied volatility drops, option premiums collapse even faster.

4. Liquidity flush

You can see long red candles → panic exits / market makers repricing risk.

Important detail

Mark Price = 11.574, but last trade = 5

This usually means low liquidity + wide spreads

Real exit price can be much worse than mark price.

Key takeaway ⚠️

This is normal behavior for OTM options near expiry.

Buying cheap puts without a strong directional + timing edge often leads to -90% to -100% losses.
