Analyst: Ethereum options implied volatility remains high

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, analysts said that although the implied volatility of Bitcoin options has dropped significantly, the uncertainty surrounding the future price of Ethereum still keeps the implied volatility of its options at a high level.

Data shows that the Bitcoin volatility index has fallen from 72% at the time of halving to a multi-month low of 55%. In contrast, Ethereum's index has fallen from 76% to the current 65% during the same period, a smaller drop. Bitfinex analysts believe that the SEC will make a decision on two spot ETH ETFs on May 23, which brings additional uncertainty to the price of Ethereum, causing its volatility risk premium to fall less than Bitcoin.

In addition, QCP Capital analysts pointed out that the risk reversal of Ethereum options is still -4%, and the price of put options is higher than that of call options, reflecting investors' bearish sentiment. In contrast, Bitcoin's risk reversal has turned positive, and call options are more expensive than put options, indicating that the market is bullish.
