Opinion: Bitcoin's recent decline exposes the breakdown of old market patterns, yet volatility remains mild
Jinse Finance reported, citing Bloomberg, that the latest round of bitcoin's decline is revealing a fundamental shift: the sharp volatility that once attracted retail risk-takers is diminishing, reflecting the growing influence of Wall Street on the crypto market's infrastructure. Although bitcoin has fallen as much as 36% since reaching a record high in early October, implied volatility remains subdued. This change indicates that the institutionalization process is reshaping the way risk is transmitted for the token. In the early days, bitcoin's value was mainly driven by speculation—traders hoped to profit from its frequent and significant price swings.

Goldman Sachs believes that if more inference tasks shift to end devices, Nvidia's share in incremental AI activity may fall short of market expectations. Currently, Nvidia's implied volatility is at its lowest since before the pandemic, and option pricing has almost no risk premium allocated for this narrative change. Therefore, Goldman Sachs recommends buying Nvidia put options and going long on Apple.
