Many traders on Binance do not follow it... but they should.
Today we present to you a key indicator that few pay attention to, but that says a lot: the VIX, known as the Fear Index ⚠️
Just like the greed and fear index of the crypto world, the VIX measures the anxiety of the traditional market. And in an increasingly connected world, ignoring the VIX is ignoring the global pulse that also affects Bitcoin, altcoins, and investor sentiment.
At Dogecity Research, we investigate in depth what impacts the VIX the most:
Armed Wars or Economic Wars?
🔫 Armed Wars: generate immediate spikes in volatility, but if they do not escalate globally, fear dissipates quickly. Example: Ukraine 2022.
📉 Economic Wars: are a constant source of uncertainty. Tariffs, sanctions, and technological blockades generate a high VIX for weeks or even months. Example: U.S. vs China 2018–2019.
Projection 2025:
A global military conflict could push the VIX above 80
A prolonged economic war would keep the VIX between 30 and 40, generating continuous pressure on the markets... including crypto!
