On September 28th, CoinDesk analyst James Van Straten pointed out that derivatives such as options contracts will push the market value of Bitcoin to at least $10 trillion. He believes that derivatives can not only attract more institutional investors to enter the market, but also effectively buffer the high volatility risk inherent in the digital currency market.
Van Straten cited the record-high volume of unpositioned squaring contracts for bitcoin futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) as an example of an important shift in market structure. He analyzed that this phenomenon is in part due to the widespread use of systemic volatility selling strategies, such as covered call options, reflecting the increasing liquidity and maturing structure of the bitcoin derivatives market. At the same time, he also pointed out that the reduction in volatility has a two-way effect: while it can mitigate the sharp declines that are common in the crypto market, it will also reduce the high-yield surges that investors are accustomed to.
