<p style="text-align: justify">On March 22, the cryptocurrency market anticipates a potential surge in volatility due to the expiration of a substantial number of <a href="https://en.bitcoinhaber.net/cryptocurrency-market-faces-sharp-downturn" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> options. This event follows a tumultuous week for Bitcoin, which dipped to $61,500 on March 20 but subsequently rallied slightly. As approximately 25,300 Bitcoin contracts are set to expire, experts watch closely how this may influence market dynamics.</p>
<h2 id="derivatives-expiry-and-market-impact">Derivatives Expiry and Market Impact</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify">Despite being lower than the previous week’s figures, today’s Bitcoin derivatives expiry, valued at $1.8 billion, is significant. The put-to-call ratio for these options stands at 0.57, indicating a heavier inclination towards long positions in the market. With Deribit reporting almost $1 billion in unsettled contracts at the $65,000 strike price, and other notable strike prices garnering high open interest, market participants are gauging the potential impacts on trading patterns.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">Crypto derivatives analytics firm Greeks Live notes that the recent stability in Fed interest rates has buoyed the market, with Bitcoin recouping its recent losses and maintaining a balance in the power between long and short positions, which underscores a robust bullish sentiment in the underlying market.</p>
<h2 id="broader-crypto-market-trends">Broader Crypto Market Trends</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify">The market is also eyeing the expiry of around 253,000 Ethereum contracts with a value of $885 million, and a similar put/call ratio of 0.51. Ethereum’s open interest is highest at the $4,000 strike price, with significant interest at $3,000 as well. Meanwhile, the total crypto market valuation has diminished by 2.5%, with Bitcoin and Ethereum experiencing slight declines. Most altcoins are currently facing losses, except for Binance Coin (<a href="https://en.bitcoinhaber.net/binance-coin-bnb-price-predictions-conflicting-signals-from-analysts" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BNB</a>) and <a href="https://en.bitcoinhaber.net/strategic-escrow-and-exchange-moves-bolster-xrps-market-presence" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a>, which have posted minor gains.</p>
