The post Bitcoin Volatility Keeps Dropping, And Michael Saylor Has the Data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Michael Saylor argues the entry of big finance hasn’t made Bitcoin wilder. If anything, he says, swings are narrowing as the asset base and market structure deepen.

That claim isn’t out of left field.

Bitcoin price is down, but the structure is sturdier Yes, the latest slide has been sharp. BTC has given back a chunk of 2025’s gains amid risk-off flows and ETF outflows. Still, that doesn’t automatically contradict the longer-term volatility compression Saylor describes. Recent coverage tallied a double-digit weekly drop and highlighted thinner liquidity as a key amplifier of short-term swings.
