Trader Sells $173M in BTC Call Options, Wagers Bitcoin Stays Below $70,000 Until Sept. 25

AI Market Summary
A large options trader reportedly sold 2,709 BTC call options (~$173m notional) with a $70k strike expiring Sept 25, collecting about $3.03m in premium if BTC settles below that level. The positioning suggests capped upside expectations over the next ~52 days and can influence short-term dealer hedging flows and implied volatility around the $70k strike, shaping near-term market positioning rather than fundamentals.
