Bitcoin Volatility Index Rises to 63.54 Yesterday, Up 0.94 Percent in a Single Day
The BitVol (Bitcoin Volatility) Index, launched yesterday, Nov. 3, by financial index company T3 Index in conjunction with options trading platform LedgerX, rose to 63.54, a one-day gain of 0.94 percent.
Note: The BitVol Index measures 30-day expected implied volatility derived from tradable bitcoin option prices. Implied volatility is the volatility implied by the actual option price. It is the volatility inverted using the B-S option pricing formula by substituting the actual option price and parameters other than volatility σ into the formula.
The actual price of an option is formed by the competition of many option traders, therefore, the implied volatility represents the market participants' views and expectations about the future of the market, and thus is considered to be the closest to the true volatility at that time.
