Hey everyone, quick crypto update on this Boxing Day (Dec 26, 2025):
The big event today is the massive record-breaking options expiry on Deribit – over $27 billion in $BTC and
$ETH options settling, including about $23-24 billion in Bitcoin alone. This is the largest single expiry in crypto history and could bring some serious volatility as gamma hedging unwinds after months of pinning BTC in that tight $85k-$90k range.
Bitcoin is currently hovering around $87,400 after a quiet holiday period with thin liquidity. The market cap is stable near $3.04T, but all eyes are on how this expiry shakes things out – many analysts expect a potential upside break toward mid-$90k or higher as the pressure releases.
Holiday trading remains low volume, so stay cautious and watch for sudden moves!
