The report on January 13th shows that Bitcoin's implied volatility has fallen back into the low expected range, with market expectations for future volatility being moderate. Short-term hedging demand is limited, indicating that prices may adjust more quickly. The profit-taking volume of long-term holders has also decreased to levels typical of a shallow bear phase, which is usually accompanied by high uncertainty.

Abstract generation in progress

On January 13, Glassnode reported that Bitcoin’s implied volatility has fallen back into a low expected range, indicating that the market’s expectation of significant volatility in the next quarter is relatively moderate and that it will return to a low-volatility state. This situation reflects limited short-term hedging demand and generally suggests that once market volatility reappears, prices will adjust more quickly as positions are rebalanced based on new information. Additionally, Bitcoin’s long-term holder profit-taking has cooled to levels typically observed during shallow bear phases. This situation is usually associated with high uncertainty and often occurs during the stagnation phase of a bull market or the early stages of a deeper bear market.
