A daring bet on the BlackRock Bitcoin spot
ETF (Ibit) crossed the band on Tuesday, suggesting expectations for a “moonshot” or a rapid increase in prices in the largest public fund in the world at the end of the month.
On Tuesday, a trader acquired 3,000 contracts from the $ 77 $ 77 Ibit appeal option on June 27, according to Data Source Barchart.com. The merchant paid a total bonus of $ 39,000 for the bullish exhibition.
A purchase option gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying assets at a predetermined price at the latest at a later date. A call buyer is implicitly optimistic on the market.
The strike call of $ 77 represents a bet that prices will cross this level before expiration. In other words, the Bitcoin follow -up FNB, which closed $ 60.40 on Tuesday, is expected to bring together more than 28% on June 27.
Pseudonymous observing endgame macro called it as a bet as high conviction on a bullish escape.
“Ibit exchanging about $ 60.40 and the $ 77 strike sitting at around 28% of money [above the spot price]This merchant anticipates a major catalyst such as overvoltage in FNB inputs, a pivot macro or regulatory lighting where they cover much greater directional exposure, “said Macro at the end.
“Whether it is a calculated bithot or part of a wider positioning strategy, one thing is clear: they expect serious volatility before June 27,” added Macro at the end.
Bull mood feedback

The negative change indicates that calls, offering an asymmetrical increase exposure, are again negotiated relatively more expensive than the points,
The renewed bullish change follows a brief period compared to last week when the puts exchanged a premium for calls, reflecting fears of decline.
