Crypto Quant analyst Axel Adler Jr stated that the 30 day average of Bitcoin's actual volatility in one week has dropped to 28.3, falling back to the historical 8th percentile since 2016. The 30 day momentum of Bitcoin open interest contracts (OI) relative to market value has been negative for 21 consecutive days, and market leverage has continued to decline.
