- Traders predict a relief bounce but agree that the bear-market bottom is likely months away, possibly in Q4.
- US inflation data for May is expected to impact market sentiment, with both CPI and PPI hitting multiyear highs recently.
- The Crypto Fear & Greed Index recorded an extreme fear level of just 8/100, indicating significant pessimism among investors.
- Onchain indicators suggest that speculative excess has been removed from the market, with over half of Bitcoin holders currently at break-even or in loss positions.
Market conditions remain volatile as traders await US inflation data while geopolitical tensions persist due to the US-Iran conflict. The current sentiment reflects widespread caution among investors, potentially signaling a buying opportunity as many sellers have exited their positions.
