The post Bitcoin Hit An All-Time Low Volatility, Will Bitcoin Price Reclaim $20K Again? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

On Oct 18 the crypto market had shown a sign of a rally with Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency by market cap, having reached the $19,600 area. However, just a day after the flagship currency started its downward journey it is now trading slightly above $19,000.

At the time of publication, Bitcoin is selling at $19,158 with a surge of 0.60% in the last 24hrs. Immediate resistance lies at $19,200 and supports around $19,000 area.

It can be observed that though Bitcoin had too many ups and downs at the start of 2022, in recent days the currency is finding some stability. However, as the flagship currency is not moving any further from its trade between $19,000 and $20,000, BTC’s volatility has reached a lower level.

For example, on Oct 21, where Bitcoin’s volatility hit an all-time low, as portrayed by Crypto trader and influencer, Livercoin.

Bitcoin’s All-Time Low Volatility

As per the influencer, the last time when Bitcoin’s volatility dropped this low was two-year ago.

Bitcoin hit levels of low volatility not seen in two years.

While it's reasonable to expect a large move now more than ever

It's also important to note that there were two periods in the past when Bitcoin spent more than 40 days consolidating after hitting these levels. pic.twitter.com/sL5wvm19B4

Nevertheless, the current macroeconomic events have pulled back Bitcoin nearly 70% from its all-time high of $69,000 in November 2021.

On the other hand, the main reason for such low volatility points towards many factors, and one such is decreased trader interest. The same was confirmed by Santiment in its Oct 19 report that there was an outflow of 40,572 BTC in a single day.

👌#Bitcoin saw a massive surge of coins moving off of exchanges yesterday, its largest daily amount (40,572 $BTC) in 4 months. The supply of coins on exchanges is down to 8.48%. As exchange supply decreases, it de-risks chances of a future sell-off. https://t.co/gi4ki39Z6T pic.twitter.com/OKtdS6RUJY

Conversely, this low volatility has become a matter of concern for market experts. This is because along with low volatility, Bitcoin trading volume has also dropped by almost 50%. Hence, the next few days are too crucial for the King’s currency.
