Overview
Institutional bitcoin investors are currently hedging their positions by betting on both upward and downward price movements.

This cautious stance comes as bitcoin trades near $72,000, with upcoming catalysts such as the US Consumer Price Index data and US-Iran diplomatic talks potentially influencing market direction.
