Stock Price Going Up, and the Puts are Gaining Value

Basically my NVDA $70 Puts that expire on the 17th of July 2026 are slowly gaining value after NVDA price appreciated earlier today.

Trying to understand if the reasons are me buying it during compressed IV times and suddenly its gaining premium value due to IV expansion?

Or suddenly there's more demand on that specific strike and expiry?

As it is a monthlies, which, to my understanding, are on average more liquid to weeklies.
