Bitcoin FUD Spike Suggests Possible Market Rebound
- Massive FUD among Bitcoin BTC -6.08% traders hints at market bottom.
- Long-term holders selling 104,000 BTC monthly.
- Ethereum ETH -9.64% exhibits extreme FUD and bearish sentiment.
Santiment reports a surge in Bitcoin FUD among traders, noted on their official Twitter account on November 12, 2025, which often signals a potential price rebound.
Increased FUD can lead to local market bottoms, affecting Bitcoin pricing dynamics and signaling possible price recovery in the cryptocurrency market.
Santiment, an established on-chain analytics platform, highlights a surge in FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) among Bitcoin traders. Historical data show that such sentiment spikes frequently signal local market bottoms and potential price rebounds.
The analysis, shared by Santiment’s team including founder Maksim Balashevich, observes an ongoing break between Bitcoin and equities correlation. Bitcoin is perceived as undervalued, and traders’ negative sentiments have intensified recently.
The immediate effect of heightened FUD is evident among Bitcoin and Ethereum traders. Long-term holders are parting with significant amounts of Bitcoin monthly, which could maintain downward pressure until accumulation begins again.
Analysts note a potential short-term market bottom due to reduced selling pressure. Ethereum also experiences acute negative sentiment, with social attitudes reaching historical peaks, indicating similar concerns as Bitcoin.
Current sentiment traces back to mixed macro signals, including recent federal interest rate changes and the potential for spot ETF inflows. These factors may stabilize Bitcoin’s market environment in upcoming months.
“Over the past 3 months, there has been a clear correlation break between crypto and equities…Based on 4 years of a tight correlation, $BTC is arguably being undervalued.” – Maksim Balashevich, Founder, Santiment
Historical trends show that fear-induced market dips such as Bitcoin’s current situation often eventually lead to rebounds. Past correlation breaks with equities have preceded rallies when fear fades away, supporting expectations for significant market recovery.
