The expiry involves 24,838 contracts with a combined notional value of $1.72 billion, and BTC has landed squarely at the $70,000 strike — the exact level known as “max pain,” where the greatest number of options contracts expire worthless. That pins price in a tight band. Traders expect it to hold between $69,000 and $71,000 until contracts settle later today. Max pain is not a coi...

A crypto analyst has broken down everything investors and traders need to know about the current Bitcoin (BTC) cycle. In his post, the pundit argued that the present cycle is different. He explained that the widely followed four-year cycle theory is fundamentally flawed, suggesting that a far more reliable framework exists for understanding where the market truly stands.  Market expert Sykodelic took to X on March 17, delivering a sharp critique of the four-year cycle theory. He argued that the widely cited model relies on nothing more than two historical data points and anchors itself purely in time rather than in any meaningful economic foundation. Whereas, he noted that the business cycle is supported by virtually every major market chart available, giving it subs...

XRP is approaching a critical turning point as price action tightens near a key resistance zone. The $1.55 level now stands as the defining barrier, with a breakout potentially signaling a stronger recovery, while continued rejection could reinforce downside pressure.  The $1.54 Level Comes Back Into Focus XRP has managed to climb back into a key short-term range, bringing the $1.54 area back into focus. From a broader perspective, MakroVision Research noted that the overall chart structure still appears weak despite the recent recovery, as XRP continues to trade below major resistance zones.
