Santiment Predicts Bitcoin Surge Despite Weekend Profit-Taking Risks

yesterday / 07:48
Cryptocurrency analytics firm Santiment released an assessment of Bitcoin's recent price behavior, noting that BTC has surged past the $95,000 level—its highest point since February. The analysis highlights a significant rise in bullish sentiment on social media, described as the largest since Trump’s election victory on November 5, 2024. However, the firm warns that this upbeat trend could soon give way to a sideways market or a slight pullback during the weekend, as investors might opt to take profits. In this environment, large stakeholders or 'whales' could capitalize on such profit-taking by re-entering the market, potentially pushing Bitcoin's price above the $100,000 mark within the next 1-2 weeks. The report underscores that the balance of greed and fear within the community will be crucial in determining whether Bitcoin consolidates at a local high or decouples from traditional market relationships.
