Bitcoin fear is peaking ahead of massive options expiry — set a trap to buy the
Created

The current selloff is heavily driven by near-term contract expirations and macroeconomic fears, which often flush out weaker hands right before a rebound. Traders are eyeing the $50K level as a major 'floor' where large buyers historically step back in to accumulate Bitcoin at a discount.
