Expand 🚨 Big Players Hedging Against Ethereum's Worst-Case Scenario, Still Preparing for the Next Round of Operations 🔹We haven't seen such a clear two-stage structure in Ethereum options trading for a long time. 🔹Total size: Approximately $97 million in notional principal (approximately $69 million on February 27th | approximately $28 million on March 26th). 🔹The goal is not purely one-sided betting, but risk hedging and volatility arbitrage. 1⃣ February 27th Segment – Downside Hedging (1800 → 1500) - Notional Principal: Approximately $69 million | Net Premium: -$300,000 - Profit: Profits begin when Ethereum price falls below 1800, with maximum profit reached at 1500 → In the short term, traders are preparing for a decline in Ethereum. If Ethereum (ETH) continues to fall to around $1500, the trade on February 27th will serve as a low-cost hedge against spot risk. 2⃣ March 26th Trade – Theta Mining/Bounce Strategy (2000 → 2600) - Notional Amount: Approximately $28 million | Net Premium: +$2.25 million - Profit: Profitable as long as the Ethereum price is above $2000, with maximum profit if the price remains above $2600 → This trade spans approximately one month, with the strike price and spot price not differing significantly, indicating that the trader, while collecting a premium, also allowed room for a rebound after the sell-off. The $2.25 million premium collected offset the approximately $300,000 hedging costs paid in the February 27th trade. 📊 Summary Short-term downside hedging + medium-term volatility selling to cover insurance costs – not a one-sided bet on Ethereum.

Expand Isn't this happening fast? I've seen so many people posting this today; has everyone become a short seller of $ETH again? To be honest, everyone's driven by profit. If #ETH breaks new highs or actually reaches $10,000, countless people will scramble to get in! That's the nature of the market. Silver had been falling for years before this crazy surge, and those short sellers will still become long sellers! You can short @ethereum, but as @star_okx said, you can't be in the crypto world without coins! The market is in extreme panic right now; AHR999 has fallen below $0.45. Why not buy now and wait for it to rise?

Expand Okay, now you're going to go to the other extreme, saying that L2 caching is terrible and pointless. That's not true either. L2 caching is great. L2 caching is good for Ethereum. Ethereum having L2 caching is definitely a huge win.

Expand According to Wu, in response to claims that "Bitmine (BMNR) faces $6.6 billion in unrealized losses, and future selling pressure will limit the price of ETH," Tom Lee, Chairman of Bitmine, the Ethereum treasury company, stated that these claims ignore the core principles of the Ethereum treasury. He pointed out that Bitmine aims to track the price of ETH and outperform the market over time; during periods of crypto market downturn, unrealized losses on ETH holdings are a "feature, not a vulnerability," just as index ETFs also experience losses during market declines.
