Auction volatility refers to rapid and significant price changes during a digital asset auction. This metric quantifies the degree of price fluctuation observed in a decentralized or centralized auction mechanism, particularly relevant in dynamic digital asset markets. High volatility can indicate intense bidding competition, uncertain asset valuation, or market manipulation attempts. Understanding these fluctuations assists in assessing market health and participant behavior.
