On the daily level, bitcoin prices have been sharply downward and volatility is narrowing.As of 12:00, Ether shorts are still in the testing phase, trying to break the bottom of the $2680.Not long after, hitting the new high, the prices of major crypto currencies dropped again. With the May expiry for Bitcoin options about to settle, Gate.io reminds investors of market volatility.


According to the data revealed by Skew Analytics, the Bitcoin options market is going to record a low monthly options expiry, with 55,900 contracts worth $2.2 billion on Friday, compared to $6 billion in March and $4 billion in April. The max pain point for the upcoming expiry is $50,000, more than 25% above the current price of $38,000. Because of the relatively small amount of the value, the max pain effect may not have a big influence on the market ahead of the settlement.


Texas state lawmakers have passed a crypto bill called “Virtual Currency Bill” or “House Bill 4474”, which aims to establish a legal framework for Bitcoin investments in the state. And now the bill is waiting for a final sign from Governor Greg Abbottto to become a law.

WisdomTree Investment has filed for an Exchange-Traded Fund based on Ethereum according to a file to the Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC), making it the second to apply for an ETH ETF. The ETF is planned to list on Cboe BZX Exchange.
