ChainCatcher News: Deribit's Asia Pacific Business Head Lin Chen posted on X that a user purchased a $95,000 call option expiring at the end of the year, while simultaneously selling a $110,000 call option expiring at the end of March next year. This involved a total of 425 BTC, with premium income of $399,000.

Lin Chen explained that buying the $95,000 call option is a reduction in position, equivalent to extending it to March next year and selling a higher $110,000 call option. The underlying logic is to hold spot positions and earn income by selling call options. Currently, the coin-based return is 3.6% (annualized to about 6.6%).
