Bitcoin's 30-day implied volatility has slipped to 40% based on the BVIV index—marking the lowest point since October. What does this mean for the market? Simply put, traders are pricing in far less price swings than they were three months ago. It's a signal that market participants aren't expecting major turbulence in the near term. Volatility compression like this often precedes significant moves, so it's worth keeping on your radar if you're actively positioning in BTC.

I've heard the term "volatility compression" too many times. Every time it's said to be "about to explode," but what happens? It just consolidates as usual.

The volatility squeeze trick is back again. Is it real or just a hype to trigger a big market move?

Volatility compression, huh? This little bud is about to bloom, feels like it's about to move.

Volatility has dropped to 40%, which is particularly prone to issues... Historically, such calm periods are usually the calm before the storm.
