The post CZ Issues Market Warning as Crypto Exits Longest ‘Extreme Fear’ Streak appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Binance founder CZ didn’t try to sugarcoat the market mood this week.

He took to X to share: “Unpopular opinion, but it’s better to sell when there is maximum greed, and buy when there is maximum fear.” It’s a familiar rule in crypto, but the message hits differently when the market has just spent 18 days locked in Extreme Fear.

CZ’s Comment Sparks a Quick Reaction Online

Traders responded almost instantly. “This is an extremely popular opinion but uncommon behavior because emotion trumps logic,” wrote an X user. Another added that “markets move on psychology long before they move on charts.”

Both comments point to the same idea: everyone knows how the game works, but acting on it is the hard part especially when prices are sliding and sentiment is shaky.

Fear Eases, but the Market Is Still Nervous

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index finally moved up to 20, shifting out of “Extreme Fear” for the first time since Nov. 10.

Sentiment had even marked a yearly low at 10 on Nov. 22. Analysts noticed how unusual this stretch has been. Matthew Hyland called it the “most extreme fear level” of the cycle.

Days later, Crypto Seth said “Extreme Fear is an understatement.”

Still, trader Nicola Duke highlighted something many traders forget – every time the market hits extreme fear in the past five years, Bitcoin has found a local bottom within weeks.

Bitcoin Holds Above $90K, but Confidence Is Fragile

Bitcoin is currently at $90,595, showing early signs of stability, but the broader mood remains cautious. Santiment says BTC discussions online are focused on volatility and institutional activity, not excitement. The Altcoin Season Index sits at 22/100, signaling a clear risk-off stance.

Bitwise researcher André Dragosch said Bitcoin is currently pricing in a recession-level global growth outlook – the most bearish setup since 2020 and 2022.

Why CZ’s Post Lands at the Perfect Time

The market is bruised, sentiment has been sliding for weeks, and traders are unsure whether December will follow its usual trend or break from history. So CZ’s reminder – simple, direct, and aimed at the heart of market psychology – arrives at a moment when traders need the reassurance.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…

Wormhole, an interoperability protocol facilitating asset transfers between blockchains, announced updated tokenomics to its native Wormhole (W) token, including a token reserve and more yield for stakers. The changes could affect the protocol’s governance, as staked Wormhole tokens allocate voting power to delegates.According to a Wednesday announcement, three main changes are coming to the Wormhole token: a W reserve funded with protocol fees and revenue, a 4% base yield for staking with higher rewards for active ecosystem participants, and a change from bulk unlocks to biweekly unlocks.“The goal of Wormhole Contributors is to significantly expand the asset transfer and messaging volume that Wormhole facilitates over the next 1-2 years,” the protocol said. According to Wormhole, more tokens will be locked as adoption takes place and revenue filters back to the company.Read more
