Risk sentiment cooling down—VIX drops below 15 following the latest CPI reading. Market participants are interpreting the inflation data as a positive signal, easing the fear gauge that traders closely monitor. This kind of volatility compression often signals a shift in market psychology, with investors regaining confidence. The move could potentially support risk-on positioning across assets, including crypto markets, as lower VIX typically precedes increased appetite for alternative investments.

VIX drops below 15, and this time the inflation data is finally a positive signal... Is the crypto market about to take off?

VIX drops below 15? That's not right, I need to take another look at the data. It feels like a reversal is coming again.

VIX has fallen below 15, but I still feel this rebound is a bit too fast... --- Wait, is the CPI data really that optimistic? Or is the market just comforting itself again? --- The crypto market is about to take off, low VIX is a signal --- It’s always like this, when volatility drops everyone starts to go all in, and then they get proven wrong again --- Hey, the fear index is down, which means investors are really recovering --- How long can the current "risk appetite" last? Don’t let it be a flash in the pan again --- The crypto market has more room for speculation, this is going to be lively
