Bitcoin's 2025 max intra-year drawdown (or realized volatility) exceeds its 2024 figure.

Criterion is disjunctive (drawdown OR realized volatility exceeds 2024). Full-year 2025 data now exists, so resolvable. Evidence points against the claim on the volatility limb (2.24% 2025 < 2.80% 2024, an all-time low) and to a near-tie on the drawdown limb (~32% 2025 vs ~32.7% 2024, essentially flat/slightly lower). Both credible metrics indicate 2025 volatility did NOT clearly exceed 2024. Outcome value left to the quantify/score stage; drawdown figures are close enough that the precise metric choice matters.

Outcome evidence

  • By realized/historical volatility, 2025 was LESS volatile than 2024: Bitcoin ended 2025 with realized daily volatility of ~2.24% — the lowest annual reading in its recorded history — down from ~2.80% in 2024. 2025 historical volatility registered ~42%.

    Evidence

  • By max intra-year drawdown, the two years were roughly comparable: 2025's largest drawdown was ~32% (the Oct 2025 selloff, cited at up to ~-36% where it extended into 2026), versus 2024's ~32.7% March-high ($73,750) to August-low ($49,221) drawdown.

    Evidence

  • 2024 max drawdown reference: ~32.7% from the March 2024 ATH above $73,000 to the August 2024 low of $49,221.
