Bitcoin price tanked all the way under $83,000 earlier today amid continued selling pressure with the BTC fear and greed index seeing even lower levels than the FTX collapse. Market analysts believe that now is not the right time for investors to panic sell their BTC as extreme fear conditions usually create upward price actions. Bitcoin In Extreme Fear Condition Amid Panic Selling With today’s fall under $83,000, BTC has extended its weekly losses to more than 12.66% with a large number of investors facing conditions of panic selling. The Bitcoin fear and greed index has dropped to 10, even lower than the FTX collapse in November 2022.

Analysts suggest this creates an ideal setup for BTC to regain momentum and stage a potential rebound.

As per the Coinglass data , the BTC futures open interest has dropped by 6.3% to $53.6 billion while the 24-hour liquidations have soared to $460 million, of which $390.88M is in long liquidation. Bitcoin deposits to exchanges surged to $1.3 billion yesterday, signaling rising market anxiety. The significant inflow reflects a wave of traders looking to offload their positions, potentially driven by fears of further price declines or heightened volatility. BTC Is On Sale Says Robert Kiyosaki Veteran Investor Robert Kiyosaki said that the current Bitcoin price crash presents a buying opportunity for investors. Kiyosaki emphasized his confidence in BTC despite its volatility, blaming systemic issues in the global monetary system for broader economic instability. While reinforcing his belief in the asset class, Kiyosaki said that BTC is “money with integrity”. He criticized the U.S. monetary system and its mounting debt, highlighting the risks posed by unsustainable obligations such as Medicare, Social Security, and a $36 trillion federal debt. “When Bitcoin crashes, I smile and buy more,” he added, positioning BTC, alongside gold and silver, as a hedge against what he called “fake money” and the failures of traditional financial systems. Trade War Concerns Drag Bitcoin Down Soon after President Donald Trump announced 25% tariffs on the European Union, the S&P 500 wiped out $500 billion from the market in a short moment. Bitcoin has extended its decline, falling below $83,000 for the first time in 15 weeks as trade war fears weigh on investor sentiment. As a result, fear among investors has dropped even below that of FTX collapse. The cryptocurrency is now down 25% from its January 20th peak. However, market experts continue to remain bullish about it. CryptoQuant founder and CEO Ki Young Ju stated: “If you’re panic selling now, you’re probably a noob. A 30% correction in a Bitcoin bull cycle is common—it dropped 53% in 2021 and still recovered to an ATH. Buying when prices rise and selling when they fall is the worst investment strategy. Invest with a clear plan”. Source: CryptoQuant The post Bitcoin Fear And Greed Index Lower Than FTX Collapse, Bounce Back Ahead? appeared first on CoinGape .
