80% probably is correct but it is also misleading.
Some people go short others long.
Let's assume 1/2 are correct.
Some people buy calls others puts. Half are on the right side half are not. Now since more calls than puts are bought and overall the market has been going down, already the call buyers are in the hole. Now when you consider that people buy idiotic things way out of the money, you can easily get to 75-80% expiring worthless.
