Extreme fear sentiment in Bitcoin: The Fear and Greed Index remains at panic levels

For thirteen consecutive days, the Fear and Greed Index has remained trapped in “extreme fear” territory, reflecting a score of 23 that indicates widespread pessimism among traders. This indicator, which analyzes multiple market variables including market capitalization dominance, trading activity intensity, and social media behavior, serves as a reliable thermometer of participants’ emotional state.

Bitcoin price remains stable despite negative sentiment

Bitcoin has experienced little movement in its price, hovering around $92.04K according to current data, with minimal change compared to its level one week ago. This phenomenon contrasts with the persistent fear reflected in the Fear and Greed Index, suggesting that the market may already be discounting some of the negativity and searching for a support floor.

Post-correction consolidation: a waiting space before the next moves

Price action shows a consolidation phase after the lows reached in November, a period during which market floors were established. However, no clear breakout has emerged to signal a definite direction. The combination of sustained extreme fear (50% of sentiment shows a bearish bias), along with price stability, indicating that the market is at a crossroads, assessing the next forces that will determine whether it continues to lateralize or generates a significant structural movement.
