Crypto Market Bounce Sparks Weekend Recovery
Crypto markets rebound with BTC and ETH posting strong gains. Sentiment improves as traders recover from recent macro shocks.
- Bitcoin and Ethereum show solid weekend gains
- Fear sentiment lingers despite price recovery
- $343M in liquidations reflect market shake-up
After a turbulent period marked by macroeconomic uncertainties, the crypto markets finally showed signs of recovery starting Friday. Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), two of the largest cryptocurrencies by market cap, recorded significant gains over the weekend, lifting overall sentiment in the digital asset space.
BTC surged by 4.5% to trade at $106,257, while ETH jumped by 6% to hit $3,610. This price action signals renewed optimism among traders and investors who have been navigating volatility stemming from global economic shifts and regulatory developments.
Sentiment Improves, But Fear Still Looms
Despite the price rebound, the Fear and Greed Index (FGI) remains low at 29, signaling that the market is still in “Fear” territory. This cautious sentiment suggests that while many are hopeful about the recent uptrend, there’s still a level of uncertainty that could weigh on market movements.
The total crypto market capitalization currently stands at $3.79 trillion, showing robust growth in a short time. However, this climb wasn’t without consequences.
Massive Liquidations Amid the Shift
As the market adjusted to the bounce, over $343 million in liquidations were recorded. These figures highlight how quickly positions can be wiped out in such a volatile environment, particularly during sudden price movements. Traders using high leverage were among the most impacted.
Still, the bounce offers a breath of fresh air for the crypto community. If this momentum continues, we may see a gradual shift away from fear and toward more neutral or even bullish sentiment in the coming days.
