Rare market volatility signal points to higher Bitcoin price in 6 to 12 months — Dan Tapiero

On April 7, the VIX (VIX) volatility index displayed a rare peak at 60, a level considered as a barometer of fear and extreme uncertainty of the market. According to Dan Tapiero, CEO of 10tfund, the VIX has only reached 60 times in the past 35 years, and the data suggests a rebound for risk assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) in 6 to 12 months.

The VIX, which is widely considered as a “gauge of fear”, reflects the expectations of investors of the turbulence of the market based on trading of S&P 500 options. As illustrated in the graph, extreme peaks were observed in 2008 and 2020, generally coinciding with the stockings, where sellers focused on panic opened the way for the entrances to the generational market.

In light of this, Tapiero argued that the current tip is not different, with the worst fears of the market, “the price”, preparing the land for a positive future. Tapiero said that “the chances favored a better future”.

Bittel explained that after the VIX had touched 60 years last week, it involved maximum uncertainty, which generates fear in the minds of investors. By briefly approaching the US Investors Intelligence Survey, Bittel compared the current bullish feeling of 23.6% with the lowest reading since December 2008.

In addition, respondents in the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) survey are currently 62% lowering, reflecting the highest lower reading since March 2009. Bittel said, said, said

“In other words, we are back at the same levels of fear that have marked the bottom of the equity market after the global financial crisis.”

This widespread fear, alongside a rare point of VIX, sets up market entries in assets such as Bitcoin, because recovery of market liquidity will inevitably return to risky assets.
