Grayscale said Bitcoin’s volatility has trended lower over the past decade as the asset class matured, market liquidity deepened, institutional participation increased and regulation improved. In a post on X, the firm said Bitcoin’s realized volatility over the past year fell to 43%, down sharply from 81% five years ago. According to Grayscale, that places Bitcoin’s trading range within the band seen among companies in the S&P 500 index. The firm added that for investors already accustomed to holding volatile equities, Bitcoin’s price swings may be less intimidating than commonly assumed. The remarks frame Bitcoin as a market that has become less erratic over time, at least by this metric, even as it remains known for sharper moves than many traditional assets.
