Bitcoin's implied volatility is cooling fast, not spiking, as IV declines across every maturity in a clear shift from the hype-fueled swings seen over the last six months. Short-dated and long-dated options are repricing lower, driving the curve flat with 1M IV at 41.5% just under 3M levels, a stark contrast to the volatile Bitcoin price prediction chaos during last quarter's crypto market crash fears. Markets ditch the urgency, pointing to normalization amid broader trends like BTC stability and emerging hype around projects such as RAVE, as traders recalibrate without the panic that gripped digital assets recently.
