The USGS Yellowstone Volcano Observatory reports no unusual activity at this time. The small quakes that do appear on todays map indicate normal brittle failure events caused when rocks break due to crustal stresses.
I.E. The caldera is breathing normally and all's well in the park.

C'mon calderas, do your thing.
If you're wondering how far away a super eruption is, for memory we've got a good 100,000-200,00 years before the conditions are right in the magma chamber again...
For an explosive eruption the magma chamber needs to be somewhere between 50%-70% melt; it's currently about 5%-15% 😁
