BTC $67.5K monthly trimmed mean at 49¢: buy the momentum continuation
R4 (BTC trimmed mean above $67,500 by July 31) sits at 49¢ — exactly fair coin — while the $65,000 contract prices 94¢ and IBIT is up 3.9% today. The 45-cent gap between these two adjacent strikes implies a $2,500 move in 12 days is coin-flip when momentum is clearly bullish. R4 transitioning from taker to neutral signals smart money is exiting, creating a mispricing versus the underlying 3.9% spot move. Buy at 49¢ for a near-even bet with momentum tailwinds.
Bitcoin's IBIT ETF gained 3.9% today and the monthly trimmed-mean above $67,500 sits at 49¢ (R4), exactly at the knife's edge of a regime shift from taker to neutral. The $65,000 trimmed-mean contract already prices 94¢, confirming current spot strength, but the $67,500 level is the critical threshold where the month-end contract flips. We play the $67,500 level long given momentum and the Ethereum contagion lag.
