Social sentiment around Bitcoin has hit its lowest point in 2024, which could signal an incoming recovery above the $100,000 mark for the world’s largest cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin's BTCUSD price is currently down over 10% from its all-time high of above $108,300 recorded on Dec. 17, trading above $97,150 as of 12:38 pm UTC, Cointelegraph data shows.
Following the 10% correction, social media sentiment around Bitcoin fell to its lowest level of 2024, to an average ratio of four to five positive versus negative Bitcoin-related comments.
However, this low retail investor sentiment could be a sign of an incoming Bitcoin breakout, wrote market intelligence platform Santiment, in a Dec. 22 X post:

Other crypto analysts are also expecting an end to Bitcoin’s correction under $100,000. On Dec. 20, Bitcoin’s daily chart produced three consecutive red candles for the first time since the first week of November, which coincidentally was the lead-up period to Donald Trump’s US election victory.

However, Bitcoin’s correction may extend another week, based on historical data shared by crypto analyst Rekt Capital, who wrote in a Dec. 21 X post: 

Yet, Bitcoin’s price trajectory flashes optimistic signs for 2025. Improving macroeconomic conditions and easing global monetary policy could bolster Bitcoin price above $160,000 before the end of next year, according to crypto services provider Matrixport.
