Data shows sentiment around Bitcoin among social media users has turned negative following the recent decline in the cryptocurrency\u2019s price.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Positive\/Negative Sentiment Has Dropped Recently<\/h2>\n

In a new post<\/a> on X, analytics firm Santiment has discussed the latest trend in the Positive\/Negative Sentiment<\/a> for Bitcoin. This metric tells us whether the majority of social media comments aimed at a given asset are positive or negative.<\/p>\n

The indicator works by putting posts\/messages\/threads containing mentions of the cryptocurrency on the major social media platforms through a machine-learning model to separate between bullish and bearish comments. It then counts up the number of posts falling in each category and takes their ratio to determine the net situation.<\/p>\n

Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Positive\/Negative Sentiment over the past month:<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Positive\/Negative Sentiment shot up into the \u201cFOMO\u201d zone earlier as the cryptocurrency\u2019s recovery surge occurred. This isn\u2019t anything unusual as positive price action tends to spark optimism among traders.<\/p>\n

The opposite trend has played out as the asset has gone through its latest pullback<\/a>. The Positive\/Negative Sentiment has now dropped to a value of 0.94, which suggests bearish comments are slightly dominating on social media platforms. This is the lowest that the metric has been since April 21st.<\/p>\n

Historically, digital asset markets have often tended to go against the crowd opinion, so this switch to a bearish sentiment could actually turn out to be a positive sign for Bitcoin. \u201cAs small traders sell off their coins as a reaction to this mild downswing, probabilities of a rebound are heightened while most people expect a further drop,\u201d explained the analytics firm.<\/p>\n

Though, it\u2019s visible in the chart that the Positive\/Negative Sentiment isn\u2019t yet inside the \u201cFUD\u201d zone where a bearish mentality becomes pronounced enough for rebounds to become probable.<\/p>\n

In some other news, the Bitcoin whales<\/a> have seen their wallet count rise over the past year, as Santiment has highlighted in another X post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

From the chart, it\u2019s apparent that there are now 20,229 wallets holdings at least 100 BTC (worth about $7.64 million). Compared to a year ago, this figure represents an increase of 11.2%. The analytics firm noted:<\/p>\n

\n

This is a significant long-term trend because wallets of at least this size (currently ~$7.7M or more) are often associated with whales, major investors, institutions, and highly capitalized long-term holders.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

BTC Price<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin has declined to the $76,400 level following its pullback of more than 5% over the past week.<\/p>\n
