Bitcoin has become more volatile due to geopolitical factors and the US election. Market expectations drive options activity, with the possibility of a post-election price surge.





Bitcoin volatility intensifies

According to blog.bitfinex.com, Bitcoin (BTC) has recently experienced significant volatility due to a complex mix of geopolitical uncertainty, macroeconomic factors, and the deepening ‘Trump trade’ narrative. The cryptocurrency saw a sharp 6.2% correction last week before rebounding, highlighting the growing influence of the impending US presidential election on its price trajectory.

Election Impact on Bitcoin

The upcoming US presidential election is expected to have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin. A Republican victory is perceived as bullish for risk assets like Bitcoin, increasing the correlation between Trump’s odds of winning and Bitcoin’s upward movement. This led to a surge in options activity, with premiums on options expiring before and after the election pushing prices higher.

Market Forecasts and Options Activity

Options activity has surged, and implied volatility is expected to peak at daily volume of 100 on November 8, shortly after Election Day. Despite the potential short-term disruption, market participants remain optimistic about long-term price growth. Bitcoin showed remarkable resilience, rising 30% through October after falling in September.

Seasonality and Market Optimism

Seasonal trends also support Bitcoin’s bullish outlook. Historically, the fourth quarter has been positive for Bitcoin, especially during the half-year period, with a median quarterly return of 31.34%. Record public interest in Bitcoin options and futures further highlights optimism among traders as the year draws to a close.

wider economic context

In the broader U.S. economy, labor markets have shown resilience despite recent disruptions such as Hurricane Milton and industrial strikes. New jobless claims fell to 227,000 last week, and the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book called employment stable.

housing market trends

The U.S. housing market is showing a mixed picture. A temporary drop in mortgage rates led to a surge in new home sales in September, while existing home sales hit their lowest level since 2010. As affordability issues persist, the ‘lock-in effect’ that causes homeowners with low-interest mortgages to hesitate to sell has worsened.

Institutional adoption of cryptocurrency

Emory University’s recent investments in digital assets, including the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust and Coinbase stock, mark a shift toward institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies. This trend indicates growing acceptance of digital assets among traditional institutions.

Microsoft’s Potential Bitcoin Moves

Microsoft’s upcoming shareholder meeting is expected to include a vote on the use of Bitcoin as a financial asset. Although the board opposes the proposal due to volatility and regulatory concerns, Microsoft’s significant allocation of cash reserves could have a major impact on Bitcoin’s legitimacy as a corporate asset.
