BTC’s Volatility Now at Lowest Since Start of January, Shows Data

The market intelligence platform, Santiment (@santimentfeed), shared a post on Twitter this morning with regards to Bitcoin’s (BTC) performance over the last 24 hours. According to the post, BTC’s drop below $30k is being made out to be a bigger issue than it really is.

According to Santiment, this is mostly due to the fact that $30k is an important psychological level for BTC. Dropping below this level could thus mean that many traders believe BTC is on its way down.

Although this could be true in most cases, Santiment pointed out the fact that despite BTC now trading below $30k, the crypto market leader’s volatility has not been this low since the start of January this year. Santiment concluded the post by stating that when traders are in doubt, it is sometimes best to just “zoom out” and take a look at the bigger picture.
