Bitcoin Bullish Options Hit a Record Low
Implied volatility for BTC call options has fallen to an all-time low of just 23%, signaling that traders are no longer willing to pay a significant premium for the possibility of a sharp Bitcoin rally.
Call options are typically used to bet on upside, so falling implied volatility suggests weaker demand for bullish exposure and lower expectations of a major upward move.
This doesn't necessarily mean Bitcoin is about to fall. Instead, it shows that the options market has become unusually cautious about BTC's upside potential.
A sharp change in positioning could become an important signal if volatility and call demand start recovering.
