Bitcoin volatility falls below S&P 500 and Nasdaq in rare shift — Galaxy

Quick Summary:

With 95% of Bitcoin’s total supply already mined and growing interest from institutions, ETFs, and even governments, Bitcoin is increasingly being viewed as a digital store of value.“Bitcoin’s supply and demand dynamics are solidifying its place as a mature digital store of value,” said Ian Kolman, co-portfolio manager at Galaxy.

According to analysts at Galaxy Digital, Bitcoin’s (BTC) realized volatility over the past 10 trading sessions dropped to 43.86, lower than the S&P 500’s 47.29 and the Nasdaq 100’s 51.26 — an unusual “positioning for a digital asset traditionally known for its outsized volatility.”The data point comes against a backdrop of renewed financial turbulence.

Hank Huang, CEO of Kronos Research, told Cointelegraph that surging ETF inflows and Strategy’s ongoing Bitcoin purchases are helping reshape Bitcoin into a digital version of gold, less tied to equities.“As institutions deepen liquidity, volatility drops, making Bitcoin a cornerstone for portfolios,” Huang added.
