Bitcoin's seven-day implied volatility fell to 32.6% on Oct. 21, below its 30-day level of 35.5%, even as U.S. stocks experienced a sharp decline with the Nasdaq-100 dropping 5.5% in the week ending Oct. 16. This suggests reduced short-term demand for Bitcoin downside protection following a period of increased stock market hedging, as reflected by a rise in the VIX index. Meanwhile, Ether's short-term volatility rose, indicating differing investor sentiment between the two cryptocurrencies. These volatility measures highlight changing risk perceptions but do not directly equate to investor confidence levels across markets.
