Because of this, investor sentiment towards altcoins is mixed

With cryptocurrency prices moving quickly in unexpected directions, it’s no surprise that investor sentiment is in turmoil. In fact, even bitcoin’s momentum versus altcoins appears to be volatile as sentiment becomes increasingly fragmented.

Mood in the market

Taking bitcoin price into account, Santiment’s positive/negative sentiment data for BTC, ETH, BNB and ADA shows more clearly how traders in different regions are reacting to the recent events.

While Bitcoin sentiment is positive and ETH, BNB, and ADA are showing negative sentiment, it is important to note that sentiment for ETH has surged in January 2022.

On the other hand, the latest data is updated around January 20, 2022. Therefore, it remains to be seen how ETH’s 10.7% drop over the past 24 hours will affect investor sentiment.

“With volatility rise, which will raise awareness of high-cap investments chaotic. Bitcoin traders believe a buying opportunity for a decline is approaching and the excitement in ETH is noteworthy. ADA and BNB traders are now involved shows FUD”.

Hence, ADA and BNB traders are feeling uneasy as sentiment is deep in negative territory. Furthermore, this sentiment was also noted before BNB fell 11.9% and ADA fell 10.1% over the past 24 hours.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin has fallen below $40,000 and is trading at $35,683. Meanwhile, the market fell into a state of extreme anxiety.

On the other hand, it is not surprising that BTC investors are calling for “buy the dip”.

Santiment has previously addressed the social dominance of orders for those planning to buy or already buying the dip. However, the analytics platform noted that most went long before hitting bottom. Now, it will be some time before the data reveals whether dip buyers have jumped in at the right time.

A look at the net flow balance on a bitcoin exchange can also show what investors are up to. So far in 2022, there has been a sharp surge in outflows, which could signal people to buy the dip. However, at the time of writing, there are signs of an inflow of funds. Again, more time is needed to confirm whether the recent drop has brought new dip buyers.
