Bitcoin Volatility Mirrors S&P 500 VIX in Unprecedented 90-Day Lockstep—What’s Next?
Wall Street’s fear gauge and crypto’s wild child are moving in eerie harmony. The Bitcoin Volatility Index (BVI) and S&P 500 VIX just posted their tightest 90-day correlation on record—signaling either market maturity or the moment hedge funds start pretending they ‘get’ crypto.
Why This Matters
When traditional finance tremors shake Bitcoin’s price swings, it’s no longer a coincidence—it’s a pattern. Traders are treating crypto like just another risk asset, for better or worse.
The Cynical Take
Somewhere in Connecticut, a quant is frantically backtesting how to blame the Fed for their altcoin losses. Meanwhile, Bitcoin keeps absorbing institutional DNA—volatility and all.
