TL;DR:
- A crypto whale traded nearly 92,600 ETH call option contracts worth $150 million on Deribit in the past 24 hours.
- The whale’s trades were all naked buys, indicating strong long-term bullish expectations for ETH.
- The trades primarily focused on out-of-the-money calls at strike levels significantly above the current market price.
- Ether (ETH) recently experienced a price rebound from a six-month low of $1,532 to $1,634 after concerns about FTX selling assets.
- ETH is trading at a 27% discount to its fair value based on a Metcalf law model, considering active user adoption on both the mainnet and layer 2 scaling solution.
