Media Outlet: Cointelegraph

Deadline: 8:00 PM EST - 4 August

Query:

We're currently working on a piece regarding the Bitcoin and
Ether Options market and growth seen in them towards the end of
July which continues to be seen in the Open Interest in August.
We're looking to get insights on the following subjects:

1. Bitcoin Options hit an all time high in Open Interest (OI) on
Aug 1st on Deribit. Contrary to the industry's belief that the
impact of the biggest options expiry will be neutral, the OI has
been almost consistent even after the major expiry event. What
could be the main reasons for this increase in interest? Does
this mean that investors are bullish on the BTC price?

2. Ether Options also hit their all time high in OI on July 30th
and volumes on 1st August on Deribit, what does this mean for
Ethereum as a network and the price sentiment of ETH?

3. How is this growth in ETH Options related to DeFi and
Ethereum 2.0?

4. Is this interest extended to institutional investors? What is
a good measure for their interest?

5. Is there any particular reason that there are only handful
exchanges leading the crypto options space? Are there any
barriers to entry and expansion?

6. Futures volumes also saw an all time high on CME recently,
why are investors moving to the derivatives market all of a
sudden in 2020? What are the factors that might be contributing
to this phenomenon?

Please feel free to add any additional details that you feel I
might have failed to consider in relation to this subject.

For your time, we will be more than happy to add your/company
name, company/profile details in the article. However, we do not
link Twitter, LinkedIn, biz websites since we are an independent
publishing house.

Looking forward to your responses.
