Bitcoin Investors Show Unusual Fear Amid Market Volatility, Possible Bounce Anticipated
According to CryptoPotato, cryptocurrency investors have shown high levels of fear and uncertainty towards Bitcoin (BTC) over the last month. This unusual period of negativity, as reported by on-chain data analytics firm Santiment, could indicate a potential buying opportunity for those who can stomach the market's inherent volatility. Despite the potential for a price increase, the market is currently experiencing “bitcoin trader fatigue” with prices fluctuating between $65,000 and $66,000. This marks an unusual fourth consecutive week of fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD).
Santiment data shows an extreme level of negativity in crowd sentiment towards BTC, which is rare as traders continue to sell their holdings. Amid this FUD, bitcoin whales are rapidly accumulating BTC in anticipation of a market rally. This negative sentiment, coupled with accumulation by whales, typically leads to a market correction where the price of bitcoin rebounds strongly, benefiting patient investors.
Furthermore, bitcoin's price trajectory could soon benefit from favorable macroeconomic conditions in the United States. Financial commentator Tedtalksmacro, known for tracking the correlation between BTC price action and US Federal Reserve liquidity, predicts a positive turnaround in the coming days. The price of BTC has closely reflected the Fed's liquidity conditions for several months, and with liquidity expected to bottom out and rise over the next ten days, bitcoin could see a corresponding rise. In particular, bitcoin's latest all-time high of 73.$800 in mid-March coincided with an increase in liquidity.
