Will Markets Break Resistance When $2B Crypto Options Expire Today?

Around 22,200 Bitcoin options contracts will expire on Friday, April 17, with a notional value of roughly $1.66 billion. This event is a little smaller than last week’s expiry, so it is unlikely to have any impact on spot markets.

Crypto prices have been climbing slowly this week, with around $150 billion being added to total capitalization since Monday.

Bitcoin Options Expiry

This week’s batch of Bitcoin options contracts has a put/call ratio of 1, meaning that sellers of longs and shorts are evenly matched. Max pain is around $71,000, according to Coinglass, which is a little lower than current spot prices, so some could be out of the money on expiry.

Open interest (OI), or the value or number of Bitcoin options contracts yet to expire, remains highest at the $80,000 strike price on Deribit, with $1.5 billion as bullish bets take over, but bears still have $1.4 billion in OI at $60,000.

Total $BTC options OI across all exchanges has been steadily climbing this month and is at $35.6 billion, according to Coinglass.

🚨 XRP Shows Strong Price Stability

XRP is currently showing strong signs of stability as it holds above key support levels. While many altcoins are experiencing volatility, XRP has managed to maintain a relatively steady price structure. This kind of behavior often indicates accumulation, where investors quietly build positions before a potential move.

Market sentiment around XRP is gradually improving as traders look for assets with lower volatility and strong upside potential. Stability is often the first step before momentum builds, making XRP an important coin to watch in the current market.

Another factor supporting XRP is its consistent trading volume. Unlike sudden spikes seen in meme coins, XRP’s volume is steady, which suggests controlled and sustained interest rather than short-term hype.

If buying pressure increases, XRP could move toward higher resistance levels. However, failure to maintain support may lead to temporary consolidation.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

Crypto pundit SMQKE has raised speculations that SWIFT may be integrating XRP for payments. He alluded to a code, which suggests that Ripple could easily move to establish connections between SWIFT-linked institutions and the XRP Ledger.

Pundit Highlights Alleged Link Between XRP and SWIFT
In an X post, SMQKE drew attention to the R3 Corda codebase, which he noted links XRP to ISO 20022 and SWIFT. He noted that any token or company aspiring to operate on the SWIFT network must comply with ISO 20022. He added that since XRP is ISO 20022-ready, and SWIFT relies on these standards, Ripple can technically establish direct connections and settlements with any SWIFT-enabled institution through the XRP Ledger.

XRP stakeholder RippleXity was the first to highlight the R3 Corda codebase, noting modules named XrpPayment, XrpSettlement, SWIFTService, and SWIFTPaymentStatusType, which point to XRP integration. However, there has been no confirmation from SWIFT regarding a potential integration.

Meanwhile, it is worth noting that the only known connection between XRP and SWIFT is through Ripple. SWIFT is named as one of the connectivity partners for Ripple Treasury for payments. Furthermore, the Treasury Management firm is also part of the SWIFT Certified Partner program. However, SWIFT doesn’t use XRP for its payment services.

SWIFT announced last year plans to launch its distributed ledger, signaling that it had no intention of adopting the XRP Ledger or XRP for its payment services. However, Ripple has continued to integrate XRP into the operations of other firms it acquired last year, including GTreasury, now known as Ripple Treasury. Last month, Ripple integrated XRP and RLUSD into its treasury management system, marking the first time a management system has native on-chain capabilities.
