Bitcoin's 30-day compression index has rebounded to 93.9%, entering an extreme zone for the fourth time during the current bear market phase, according to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. The metric signals heightened volatility compression as the market approaches a potential directional breakout. Over the past 20 days, Bitcoin has repeatedly tested its annual moving average but failed to establish a sustained position above the key resistance level. This persistent rejection at the annual moving average indicates that volatility compression is intensifying near critical resistance, suggesting the market may face a decisive directional move in the near term.
