While traders were already anticipating some solace to arrive in the weekly timeframes of the cryptocurrency markets, other viewpoints reaffirmed that over the long term, nothing had changed for Bitcoin for many months.

According to the most recent issue of its weekly newsletter, The Week On-Chain, on-chain analytics company Glassnode demonstrated that “it is quite unusual for BTC markets to achieve periods of such low realized volatility, with practically all past instances preceding a very volatile shift.”

Researchers, including chief analyst Checkmate, asserted that the market had reached a turning point with a chart showing Bitcoin’s realized volatility.

“In the past, big price swings in both directions have been preceded by 1-week rolling volatility below the present value of 28% in a bear market,” they added.

Glassnode concluded by stating that even if there was possibility for a price breakout, such as new all-time highs in BTC-denominated futures open interest, there was “no clear directional bias in futures markets.”

The newsletter warned that “volatility is probably approaching, and Bitcoin prices are not known to remain stable for very long.”
