Investors in Bitcoin are maintaining caution amid geopolitical tensions and market volatility. Despite such conditions, there is no indication of panic selling or significant inflows to exchanges.

  • Past geopolitical events like the Russia-Ukraine conflict and Israel-Iran tensions triggered exchange inflows, which were not observed with the arrest of Venezuela's president, Nicolás Maduro.
  • The fear and greed index has risen to 42, indicating a neutral sentiment for the first time since October 2025.
  • The global crypto market cap increased by 1% to $3.15 trillion, and Bitcoin gained 1.4%, trading near $92,500.
  • Polymarket traders forecast a potential BTC price breakthrough above $150,000 in 2026.
  • A consistent rise in Bitcoin accumulation has been noted, with balances at all-time highs through 2024 and 2025.
  • Retail accumulation is growing slowly, suggesting increasing participation from smaller investors without large inflows typical of cycle peaks.
