The average transaction fee per Bitcoin (BTC) transaction made a complete 360-degree over nearly two years to settle down at $1.039, a number which was last recorded back in June 2020. 
The BTC transaction fee is the cost to transfer any amount of BTC, which is also directly proportional to the time it takes to validate and complete the transaction.
As evidenced by data provided by Blockchain.com, the average BTC transaction fee saw a steady decline from an all-time high of $62.788 in April 2021 before coming down to an eight-month average of $2 in July 2021.

The sudden spike in the transaction fees at the time mirrored the significant decline in the Bitcoin network hash rate. However, at the time of writing, the Bitcoin network hash rate maintains its newly attained all-time high of 248.11 EH/s.

BTC’s price volatility has also shown greater stability as it oscillates between the $35,000 to $45,000 mark throughout the year, as seen below based on data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView.

Jangan Lewatkan Bitcoin Hari Jumat Ini: Dua Level Ini Sangat Penting! Volatilitas Bisa Meningkat! Inilah Detailnya

Bitcoin, mata uang kripto terkemuka, baru-baru ini menembus level $81.000, mencapai titik tertinggi dalam tiga bulan terakhir. Kenaikan ini didorong oleh beberapa faktor, seperti penurunan imbal hasil obligasi AS, tekanan pada dolar, meningkatnya permintaan institusional untuk ETF spot Bitcoin, dan penutupan posisi short. Pasar kini bersiap menghadapi sesi perdagangan opsi yang penting pada Jumat ini, karena bertepatan dengan Jumat terakhir baik dalam minggu maupun bulan. Data mingguan menunjukkan bahwa pada tanggal 28 Agustus, opsi Bitcoin senilai sekitar $6,4 miliar akan kadaluarsa di bursa derivatif Deribit. Dominasi opsi call dibanding put menunjukkan sentimen bullish tetap ada. Namun, kadaluarsanya volume opsi sebesar itu sekaligus dapat meningkatkan volatilitas pasar. Level $75.000 dan $80.000 sangat menonjol sebagai harga strike untuk opsi call. Posisi terbuka untuk call $75.000 bernilai sekitar $236 juta, sementara untuk call $80.000 sekitar $157 juta. Kenaikan Bitcoin ke $80.000 berarti market maker perlu mengelola risiko opsi di level-level kunci ini, yang berpotensi meningkatkan aktivitas perdagangan dan fluktuasi harga yang lebih tajam di sekitar level tersebut. Pakar manajemen risiko Deribit menekankan bahwa kadaluarsa opsi ini adalah peristiwa yang perlu dipantau, karena sekitar 20% posisi terbuka Bitcoin di Deribit akan berakhir periode ini, dikombinasikan dengan fluktuasi harga yang tajam baru-baru ini, membuat pasar menjadi lebih sensitif.
