Bitcoin may not post a new all-time high any time soon as crypto market sentiment is at its highest level for months, according to Santment.
On Sept. 30, onchain analytics platform Santiment stated that those expecting a new Bitcoin all-time high may need to first wait until the crowd “slows down their own expectations.”
It looked into social sentiment data, adding that there are currently 1.8 bullish posts about Bitcoin for every 1 bearish post.
“Markets historically always move in the opposite direction of the crowd’s expectations.”
Sentiment has turned extremely bullish over the past fortnight or so with BTC prices steadily climbing around 14% from below $58,000 on Sept. 17 to top out above $66,000 on Sept. 28.
Moreover, BTC is on track to record its best-ever September since inception in terms of gains which have been around 12% so far.
Casa chief security officer Jameson Lopp observed that mainstream media was also shifting to positive territory.
“Bitcoin sentiment is shifting positively in mainstream media as FUD fails to withstand the test of time,” he said in a post on X on Sept. 29.
Additionally, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index, which also measures market sentiment, has returned to greed levels with a rating of 61 on Monday, Sept. 30.
It was in the depths of ‘extreme fear’ only weeks ago when the index fell to 22 on Sept. 6, one of its lowest levels for the past year.

On Sept. 29, Cointelegraph reported that demand for stablecoins in China is bearish which could also delay a Bitcoin ATH. When dollar-pegged stablecoins trade at a discount rather than a premium in China, it indicates bearish sentiment.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $64,406, around 12.6% down from its March all-time high of $73,734, according to CoinGecko.
Additionally, the asset was retreating sharply during early trading on Sept. 30, falling almost 2% over the past six hours to the time of writing.
