BVIV was discussed in detail by Katie Stockton during a conversation with Steven Ehrlich on the Bits and Bips platform.
Shin previously explained that the Bitcoin volatility index was already factoring in the U.S. Senate’s Clarity Act before the August recess in her article Bitcoin volatility index reflects Clarity Act ahead of Senate August recess. She has also reported on top fintech companies like Robinhood and Coinbase building onchain lending products, as detailed in Leading fintechs focus on onchain lending platforms. These developments offer further context for the recent interest in sentiment and volatility indices such as BVIV.
