Cryptocurrency investors seem to adopt a “wait” approach to the plethora of contradictory titles appearing. Consequently, the Volatility Index of the BTC (DVVAD) on the discussion of popular options has been decreasing since January 20, going from a summit from 72 to around 50.8.
The fall signals the maturation of Bitcoin as an actor, according to Tracy Jin, COO of the Mexc cryptocurrency trading platform. “Rather than reacting strongly to short -term market shocks, the BTC shows signs of stabilization, increasingly resembling the dynamics of the markets of raw materials and traditional security assets,” said Jin.
While the payments of FTX creditors began to deploy, the balance of balance token continues to intensify. The co-creator of the token, Hayden Davis, boasted of buying access to the interior circle of the Argentinian president Javier Milei before the launch of the same, according to the messages examined by Coindesk.
Meanwhile, the strategy, the largest holder of the Bitcoin company, is expected to collect additional $ 2 billion by selling convertible zero coupon tickets. The funds collected will be used mainly to accumulate more BTC.
As CEO and CIO of Brevan Howard Digital – this is only one person – underlined in the Hong Kong consensus, the cryptocurrency ecosystem has evolved since the collapse of the FTX, but the risk management 24/7 is always a necessity.
On the macro level, traders focus on the minutes of the meeting of interest rates of the federal reserve. The indications for the potential impact of increased tariffs are a particular point of development, given President Donald Trump’s comments on prices “in the 25% district for cars, semiconductors and pharmaceuticals” .
The recent American-Russia talks in Riyadh led to the appointment of teams to negotiate the end of the war in Ukraine and the commitments to “normalize the functioning” of their diplomatic missions. However, the exclusion of representatives of Ukraine and Europe remains a point of discord. Stay vigilant!
