Bitcoin (BTC) Bullish Metric Signals Potential Upward Trend – Santiment
Data from analytics platform Santiment suggests that a significant indicator currently shows a positive signal for Bitcoin (BTC), similar to the one observed in November 2022.
Santiment notes that the level of fear in the digital assets space, based on the popularity of crypto-related terms, resembles the period following the collapse of FTX last year, which ultimately marked the market bottom.
🔐 One of the primary signs of fear is when the top trending #crypto keywords are almost all related to hardware wallets & security. We saw similar safety concerns from traders in November 2021 after the @FTX_Official collapse. That marked a market bottom. https://t.co/0MIfQq1TSd pic.twitter.com/nFIeAwmVPf
