Are traders done with Ether? Options market now prices higher risk for ETH than BTC

Currently, the cost of derivatives to insure against price drops is more for Ether (ETH) than Bitcoin (BTC), highlighting a negative shift in market sentiment towards Ethereum. The options data indicates that Ether’s put options are trading at a higher premium compared to call options, signaling concerns about downside risks.

Ether had a notable 48% surge in July, reaching $3,941, but has since faced a decline, currently priced at 3,600 USD, down over 6% in 24 hours. Meanwhile, Bitcoin saw a 3% loss, trading at 114,380 USD, reflecting that attention has shifted from Ether’s recent gains.
