COINOTAG reports, as of May 4th, Coinglass data indicates that Bitcoin’s *volatility* has reduced to **2.73%**, following a sustained week of declines. Typically, significant fluctuations in Bitcoin are associated with **speculative trading** and the prevailing **FOMO** (fear of missing out) sentiment among retail investors. A decrease in volatility may signal the exit of short-term speculators, suggesting the potential for a market **consolidation phase** or a notable *cooling-off period*. Moreover, Bitcoin’s price movements are frequently influenced by wider **macroeconomic factors**, including shifts in *inflation expectations*, alterations in **interest rates**, and varying **geopolitical risks**. As these external influences stabilize, it is not uncommon for Bitcoin’s volatility to similarly diminish.
