Adam Livingston: Volatility for Bitcoin and linked assets varies in 2026 YTD
2026 volatility for Bitcoin and related assets

Annualized volatility for 2026 year-to-date differs significantly among Bitcoin and related assets, according to Adam Livingston. Bitcoin's volatility stands at 44%, compared to 104% for ASST common shares and 24% for SATA preferred shares over the same period on the same scale.

Livingston describes how structured finance can turn a single asset's volatility into distinct choices for different asset types.

Livingston previously highlighted that JPMorgan analyzed Bitcoin’s long-term performance while Fidelity examined Bitcoin-backed preferred stock as a new financial instrument. In another report, he noted that Bitcoin was trading 50% below its gold all-time high. These observations add context to the current focus on volatility across digital and related assets.
