Ether Volatility Drops — Calm Before a Bigger Move?

[madmax]

Ether has fallen about 6% over the past week, trading near $2,040 as market activity cools. Data shows that realized volatility has dropped to its lowest level since January, signaling a sharp decline in speculative trading and price swings.

While lower volatility suggests reduced short-term risk, it often precedes major price moves. Historically, similar periods of calm have been followed by either strong rallies or deeper corrections, making the current setup a critical turning point for ETH.
