Sentimental Analysis for Cryptocurrencies- October 28
Cryptocurrencies are in a very difficult territory where no fundamental or technical indicators is actually affecting the price than the sentiment of the community. Every news article or a social mention is actually driving the trend and direction of where the prices are heading to. Although most of the sentiment is derived from the sentiment of the Bitcoin- the largest cryptocurrency, still some altcoins have their specific pros and cons that change their variance from that of Bitcoin. Let’s look at the few indicators that are used widely across to determine the sentiment.
Bitcoin Sentimental Analysis
As mentioned it’s the largest coin in the market that decides most of the trend for the crypto markets is necessary to understand that sentiment it garners among the community. A lot of news flow and sell off has dampened the short term sentiment but yes there are some long-term positives which make Bitcoin an interesting study. An analysis of its social mention and greed and fear index would give us a clear idea of what is happening

The fear on the street seems to be rising and seems like there could be a sell off. But Bitcoin stability is good enough to keep everything in control. USD 6300 wont be breached unless something drastically goes wrong. Looks like neutrals will continue to rise as bitcoin stability continues.

All altcoins are showing the same stability what Bitcoin is showing. Everything stands neutral with a positive outlook though. It doesn’t look like moving either ways for any of the coins unless something drastically changes.
