Deribit\u2019s volatility gauge provides a 30-day outlook on investors\u2019 expectations for annualized volatility. <\/p>\n<p>Like other volatility products, BTC DVOL can potentially help traders with risk management, portfolio hedging or market speculation. <\/p>\n<p>Volatility-as-an-asset is widely traded in traditional finance, with the most popular product being the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index, also known as VIX. The VIX fluctuates on a scale of 1-100, with 20 representing the historical average. Readings below 20 signal lower implied volatility than the historical mean. Readings above 20 are usually associated with more turbulent financial conditions; anything above 30 signals significant market volatility, usually due to uncertainty, risk, or investor fear. <\/p>\n<p>VIX measures the volatility of S&amp;P 500 Index options, a leading indicator of the U.S. stock market. <\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2023-03\/c2d62298-1c5e-4367-9869-fa88a7e3eb3c.png\"><figcaption style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Traditional markets have battled extreme volatility over the past 12 months, marked by major fluctuations in the S&amp;P 500 Index and broader stock market.
