Bitcoin sees a nearly 20% increase in the past seven days, with its market dominance reaching pre-China ban levels. The fear index has entered the greed zone.

Carrying BlackRock's application for a Bitcoin spot ETF, Deutsche Bank registering custody services, as well as Citadel, Fidelity, and Charles Schwab launching the exchange EDX and other positive news, Bitcoin has been rising for consecutive days, with a nearly 20% increase in the past seven days. Its market share has also returned to the level before the Chinese ban two years ago. However, the fear index is also relatively high, entering the greed zone.

Bitcoin Volatility on the Rise

The Block points out that prior to this recent surge, Bitcoin's volatility was even more stable than tech stocks like Amazon and Meta. However, data shows that Bitcoin's volatility has increased to the highest level since mid-May.

From a low of 31% on June 6, it has risen to the current 51.82%.

Although there hasn't been a significant increase in spot trading volume on exchanges, The Block cites industry insiders suggesting that the price increase may be partly attributed to institutional trading occurring over-the-counter (OTC).
