BTC and ETH Market Insight

 

The market is closely monitoring any potential tariff announcements from President Trump as we approach the April 2nd deadline. As a matter of fact, the market sentiment has started to turn sour on the PCE announcement.  Stronger-than-expected core PCE data also raised concerns about a potential delay in rate cuts, adding to market uncertainty. The risk-off price action continues to dominate in the market alongside higher treasury yield and gold price since then. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a drop of 73.6% in net inflows from the week prior, ending the week with a net outflow of $93.16 million on Friday.

 

Options Market

 

The realised volatility continued to drift lower during the beginning of the week until the sharp selloff kicked in on Friday. The one-week implied volatility rose more than 10 points for both BTC and ETH. ETH underwent a sharper selloff than BTC once again hence a higher increase on IV. ETHBTC ratio got pushed back down to 0.022 mark. Front-end skew shifted higher to favour puts as the demand for downside protection rose, It’s noteworthy that the mid-dated skew also moved a bit towards puts. This may indicate a potential sentiment shift for the market outlook in the mid term.
