Published by

Global Google searches for “Bitcoin” soared to a one-year high during the week of February 1 as the price plunged toward $60,000 before rebounding near $70,000, erasing post-election gains. On X, opinions are divided: some see rising retail interest as a bullish signal, while others call it FOMO. Volatility was fueled by deleveraging, Fed signals, and Epstein-related FUD. On-chain data showed record losses, suggesting either capitulation or a fresh buying opportunity for investors.
