US President Donald Trump’s recent comments about Iran helped trigger a Bitcoin rally, leading to an uptick in social media sentiment about Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Social media sentiment over Bitcoin has shifted back to optimism as Bitcoin recovered to over $70,000 on Tuesday, driven by US President Donald Trump\u2019s recent comments that the war with Iran could be nearing an end.<\/p>\n

In an X post on Tuesday, market intelligence platform Santiment shared data that shows the number of positive social media discussions has been steadily increasing after tanking on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cAcross X, Reddit, Telegram, and other crypto-related discussions, the crowd is encouraged by Trump’s comments that the war may soon end, and oil prices reversing course,\u201d Santiment said.<\/p>\n

It added in a separate post that \u201cperiods of uncertainty often trigger a search for alternative assets, and crypto markets tend to react quickly because they trade globally around the clock and are not tied to any single government or financial system.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tensions in the Middle East escalated last month after the US and Israel launched strikes against Iran. In response, Iran retaliated against several neighboring countries.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump\u2019s comments on Monday, however, signaled the war could be wrapping up soon, saying: \u201cI think the war is very complete, pretty much,\u201d though he later said in a Truth Social post that if Iran did anything to slow the supply of oil, the US would ramp up its military pressure on the country.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin held firm in the face of geopolitical shocks<\/h2>\n

Ryan McMillin, chief investment officer of Australian crypto investment manager Merkle Tree Capital, told Cointelegraph that several other factors might also be driving a rebound in positive sentiment among traders.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin’s strong resilience to geopolitical shocks and institutional momentum from companies such as Strategy, which bought nearly 18,000 Bitcoin last week and made a second purchase this week, could also be contributing, according to McMillin, along with Bitcoin holding above its February lows.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin has shown real strength through tough conditions, with inflation cooling, oil risk aside, adding tailwinds so too a new Fed chair only months away and the Clarity Act inching closer to implementation.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cShorts are vulnerable; liquidity on the short side could get squeezed toward $80,000 before a true higher\/lower decision point. Bears ruled for months, now they could face their first test of this cycle,\u201d McMillin added.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

FOMO could be a good sign overall<\/h2>\n

Despite social media discussions about Bitcoin trending positively, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index, which measures overall crypto sentiment, remained at 15, indicating it remains in \u201cextreme fear.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Crypto Fear & Greed uses several sources for its ratings: Bitcoin volatility, dominance, market momentum, social media and Google Trends data.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Google Trends data for \u201cBitcoin\u201d returned a score of around 71 as of Wednesday, down from its peak of 100 on March 5.<\/p>\n

\u201cFOMO frequently becomes self-fulfilling in crypto. Sentiment flips from fear to greed attracts fresh buyers, boosts volumes, and drives short-term upside, as we’ve seen in past cycles,\u201d McMillin said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn oversold technical setup after five months of declines, five straight months down from the $126,000 all-time high in October has left Bitcoin heavily oversold, priming it for a relief rally at very least,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
