Analysts said the uncertainty surrounding the future price of Ethereum had kept the asset's implied volatility in options well above that of Bitcoin, while Bitcoin's implied volatility had fallen more sharply, suggesting that derivatives traders believe the market is stabilising.
According to The Block data, during the current post-halving market correction period, Ethereum's IV did not drop to the same extent as Bitcoin's. The Bitcoin Volatility Index fell from 72% at the time of the halving event to a multi-month low of 55%. In contrast, the same indicator for Ethereum fell less, from 76% to the current 65%.
Gold Finance Note: Implied volatility (IV) is a measure used in the options market to represent the market's prediction of possible future movements or price fluctuations in an asset or security.
