📉 BTC OPTIONS: VOLATILITY COOLS
Implied volatility has reset lower after last week’s spike, as $BTC failed to break the $92K resistance.

📊 IV down across the curve:
• Short-dated: 57% → 48%
• Mid-tenor: 52% → 45%
• Longer-dated: 49% → 47%

This signals cooling expectations and reduced near-term risk pricing, with traders waiting for a clear directional catalyst.

#FLOW USDT (Daily) – Compression at Extremes

$FLOW has spent years in a clean descending structure, now trading near cycle lows with volatility fully compressed.

🔹 Long-term falling wedge forming
🔹 Price sitting at major historical demand
🔹 Downtrend momentum clearly weakening

If FLOW breaks and holds above the descending trendline, a mean-reversion rally toward prior range resistance becomes likely.
