Same coin, two days later, and the ladder tells the same story with slightly more room to the upside. With Bitcoin near $77,500 in mid-September, the $76,000-and-below strikes are priced as locks and the $88,000 and $90,000 lines at low single digits are asking for a breakout the range hasn't produced. The $82,000 strike at 45% is the genuine contest, sitting just above spot where two decent sessions get it there and two flat ones don't. Extra distance to the settle date means more room for a Fed headline or a liquidation cascade to reprice the whole board, so treat the middle strikes as the only live trades.
