Investors Adapt to Bitcoin's Volatility
According to Flowdesk data, Bitcoin's volatility has hit its lowest level since March, occurring independently of macroeconomic factors.
Institutional traders are actively employing straddle and covered-call strategies to maintain profits. In the altcoin sector, a 'mini-cycle' is observed, creating new opportunities for ETF inflow. Analysts warn that 'compressed volatility is temporary', reminding market participants of the inherent risks.
New Regulatory Directions for Cryptocurrency in Washington
Republican members of the House of Representatives have introduced a draft bill transitioning primary oversight of cryptocurrency markets to the CFTC, aiming to provide a clear regulatory roadmap for exchanges. The bill includes provisions to exclude certain DeFi segments from SEC oversight. Meanwhile, a bipartisan stablecoin initiative is progressing and will be discussed in public committee sessions next week.
