BTC Implied Volatility at 88th Percentile Over the Past Year; 24H Bull Call Spreads Dominate the Options Market
Market Highlights
•Latest data shows BTC implied volatility (IV) remains elevated at 53%, while ETH IV holds at 69%. BTC IV is currently around the 88th percentile over the past year, indicating that short-term volatility expectations remain near yearly highs.
•Recently, BTC 25-Delta Skew first narrowed, then sharply declined on Feb 23–24, with 7D Skew briefly approaching -18 vol. This suggests concentrated demand for short-term downside protection and a temporary rise in hedging sentiment. The subsequent rapid rebound implies the move was more event-driven than a structural repricing of risk. Overall skew remains moderately negative, with puts slightly richer, indicating cautious downside protection but no sustained bearish bias.
•From the GEX distribution, Gamma is mainly concentrated in late-February expiries, implying short-term hedging pressure may suppress volatility and keep prices range-bound. However, a negative Gamma zone emerges in mid-March; if prices move into that area, volatility could expand, signaling potential structural regime shifts. $BTC
