Glassnode: Bitcoin Index Reflects Strong Bearish Market Sentiment, Signaling Institutional Active Hedging Activity

BlockBeats News, September 8th, Glassnode posted on social media, stating that Bitcoin's 25Delta Skew Index (1-month) has continued to climb to a historic high, reflecting strong demand for downside protection options. This is not merely a bearish signal in the market, but often indicates active institutional hedging activity.
