    Is Bitcoin Losing Its Bullish Momentum?

  • Bitcoin (BTC) futures have surged past the $100,000 price mark on Deribit, trading at a premium to its spot market price.

    At press time, BTC futures contract expiring on March 28 traded 4.8% higher at $101,992, representing a. premium of nearly 5% to the global average spot price of $97,200, according to data source Deribit and TradingView. Contracts expiring on June 27 and Sept. 26 changed hands at $104,948 and $107,690 in an upward-sloping futures curve.

    The pricing represents expectations that the spot price will be comfortably above $100,000 by the end of March and beyond. Deribit’s BTC options suggested the same, with the $100,000 call option boasting a notional open interest of $2.13 billion.

    However, the futures contract expiring in a few weeks from now on Dec. 28 traded in five figures. Those trading on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, considered a proxy for institutional activity, also traded below $100,000, according to TradingView.
