$BTC saw these prices in Dec 2017 then once in Jun 2019. We're here again today but volatility hasn't even started picking up.

A crypto-asset analyst shared the chart below on October 31st, sharing the sentiment that Bitcoin’s volatility is still barely off the lows. The chart below depicts BTC’s one-day historical volatility index since the start of the year. As can be seen, volatility is still far below the highs that were printed during March’s over 60% correction. The analyst suggested that if BTC breaks the trendline depicted in green, it will start a movement of macro importance. While the current trends suggest that there will be a move to the upside, BTC could reverse lower from here if another liquidity crisis is to happen. Bitazu Capital’s Mohit Sorout believes that the volatility results in a strong move to the upside and showed how the macro volatility is compared to historical levels now.

The actual breakouts are expected to take Bitcoin above $20,000 as a crypto analyst “Light” shared that the number one cryptocurrency could see the price discovery over $20,000 once the retail investor’s comeback in the crypto space:

 “The retail segment is not overheated whatsoever currently. It will be soon though. Price is leading public interest. This is a telltale sign of smart money entering while retail has their heads buried in the sand. Once the latter catches up to the former, we’ll be in price discovery over $20,000.”

Tyler Winklevoss as well as other investors in the space believe that Bitcoin will surpass $20,000 by the end of 2020 and now bitcoin is on a 45% rally away from hitting this milestone.
