Crypto options exchange Deribit's future-looking Bitcoin (BTC) volatility index — used as a crypto fear gauge of sorts — has reportedly reached its lowest level in two years, indicating a possible lack of price turbulence for Bitcoin in the near future.

On July 24, crypto derivatives analytics platform Greeks Live noted that the volatility index for both Bitcoin and Ether
