Bitcoin volatility is waking up! Increased OI in BTC options, especially short-dated calls.

The $BVIV index from Volmex Finance climbed since July 12th, rising from ~39.5 to above 42.1, reflecting renewed directional uncertainty.

BVIV UP reflects:
• Higher demand for BTC options (vega premium rising)
• Anticipation of price expansion near key resistance
• Realized vol catching up to implied vol in short-dated contracts

For directional / vol trades, this is where BVIV on gTrade shines.

Nice thread. 

$BVIV and $EVIV are great tools and having them on chain is even better!
