According to BlockBeats, on November 13, the BitVol (Bitcoin volatility) index launched by financial index company T3 Index and options trading platform LedgerX rose to 62.32 yesterday, a single-day increase of 8.18%.
BlockBeats Note: The BitVol index measures the 30-day expected implied volatility derived from the price of tradable Bitcoin options. Implied volatility refers to the volatility implied by the actual option price. It is the volatility inferred by substituting the actual option price and other parameters except volatility σ into the B-S option pricing formula.
The actual price of an option is formed by competition among many option traders. Therefore, implied volatility represents the views and expectations of market participants on the future of the market and is therefore considered to be the closest to the actual volatility at the time.
