Odaily Planet Daily reported that as Bitcoin experienced a significant decline on Thursday, volatility in the options market increased markedly. The Deribit Bitcoin Volatility Index (DVOL) rapidly rose from around 37 to over 44, marking the largest increase since November 2024. DVOL is considered the “VIX” of the crypto market, reflecting market expectations of future 30-day price fluctuations. The upward movement of this indicator indicates that traders are paying higher premiums for downside risk, with options prices rising and market risk aversion intensifying. This surge in volatility occurs amid renewed macroeconomic uncertainties, including rising risks of a US government shutdown and noise surrounding the future leadership of the Federal Reserve. However, based on historical ranges, Bitcoin’s implied volatility has not yet entered extreme levels. (CoinDesk)
