According to Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers, Friday’s end-of-month bitcoin options expiry, which involves over $5.8 billion in contracts, could trigger significant market volatility.

Strijers noted that this is the second-largest open interest on the exchange, and the large number of expiring options may lead to increased price swings as traders adjust their positions.
