<p>The Fear and Greed Index is a market axiom that knowledgeable traders prefer to purchase when the index shows severe fear and to be more cautious when greed is high. However, this may not be the case.</p>
<p>Since October of last year, the index has consistently remained over 70 (the “greed” level). It plunged as low as $50 following the introduction of bitcoin ETFs in January, which was first viewed as a “sell-the-news” occurrence.</p>
<p>Bitcoin’s price has more than doubled over the last year. A year ago, a single coin was worth as little as $21,000.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="could-bitcoin-tank-again">Could Bitcoin tank again?</h2>
<p>Bitcoin faces a new battle to overcome “densely packed” resistance as the BTC price approaches $50,000. In a thread on X (formerly Twitter), popular analyst Cole Garner spotlighted this very concern.</p>

<p>Despite falling over 4% on February 13 owing to unexpected US inflation statistics, Bitcoin has already recovered its losses and reached a new two-year high. Prior to the February 14 Wall Street opening, BTC/USD approached $52,000.</p>
<p><em>“There is a brick wall of asks on Bitfinex. Densely packed all the way up to $52.3,”</em> Garner said.</p>
<p>There is a catch for market observers: bulls face a reconfigured liquidity picture, which might keep the market locked below $52,000. <em>“ETF flows could eat thru it, but bitfinex is replenishing the wall much faster than demand can swallow it. All price can do is bounce off that.”</em></p>
<p>His post on X discussed the struggle between sellers and spot demand from the recently announced U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Despite consuming far more BTC than block subsidies add to the supply, ETFs are currently experiencing a liquidity excess in the important $50,000 zone.</p>
<p>The spotlight is on Bitfinex and its parent company, Tether, a stablecoin supplier. Historically, Bitfinex whale traders have substantially impacted spot pricing due to the volume of their trades. The identity of the liquidity supplier remains unknown.</p>
