Data shows that Bitcoin has increasingly behaved like a risk-on asset in the year 2021 as its price movements have reacted to the VIX volatility index.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Cements Itself As A Risk-On Asset During The Year 2021<\/h2>\n

As per the latest weekly report from Arcane Research<\/a>, BTC has behaved like a risk-on asset this year as the crypto’s price has seemed to follow VIX.<\/p>\n

“VIX<\/a>” is the ticker symbol for the Chicago Board Options Exchange’s Volatility Index. This index tells us about the stock market’s expectations of the volatility based on S&P 500 index options.<\/p>\n

While the official name is the CBOE volatility index, the name “VIX” has caught on as the most popular way to refer to it.<\/p>\n

The VIX index is a real-time indicator that measures the expected volatility in the market for the coming thirty days. The index is also often referred to as the “fear gauge.”<\/p>\n

When the value of this metric is high, it means a greater volatility in the stock market may follow in the near future. On the other hand, low values of the index would suggest a period of low volatility might be there soon.<\/p>\n
