Odaily News Greek.live macro researcher Adam posted on the X platform stating that the market is in a clear downtrend, with BTC's mid-short term IV rising to 40% and ETH's short term IV rising to 70%. The increase in short-term IV indicates a rise in market expectations for volatility this week.

September has historically been a month of relatively weak capital, and the last quarter will see more abundant funds.

However, from the trading volume, we can see the market's trading enthusiasm; today, Deribit traded $10.9 billion in options, marking the first time a daily trading volume has surpassed $10 billion. High trading enthusiasm indicates that the market still has strong confidence in the future, and a bull run is likely to continue."
