The crypto asset (cryptocurrency) market, which froze at the end of last year, appears to be recovering from early 2026.
On the 3rd (Korean time), according to crypto-focused media Cointelegraph, Santiment said on its official YouTube channel, "mentions of virtual assets on social media and investment sentiment have turned very positive since the start of the new year."
Indeed, major crypto assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP all showed strength the previous day. Meme coins and crypto-related stocks also recorded gains the previous day.
However, Santiment urged a cautious approach, saying that excessive optimism could increase short-term volatility. Brian Quinlivan, a Santiment analyst, stressed, "It is true that investor sentiment is currently quite strong, but at times like this there is a need for vigilance." He added, "If Bitcoin briefly breaks through the $92,000 level, retail investors' FOMO (fear of missing out) could occur," and "if reckless capital inflows begin, it could have a negative impact on the market."
