JAKARTA - On Wednesday, at 11:20 WIB last night, Bitcoin made its all-time high price (ATH) at the level of 93,434 thousand US dollars or equivalent to Rp1.47 billion per coin. This increase was driven by the newly elected US President Donald Trump's policy of loosening crypto regulations.

This policy has increased public optimism in the crypto market. Bitcoin's recent ATH achievement has led investors to believe the price of Bitcoin could reach 100,000 US dollars (Rp 1.5 billion) in the near future. The skyrocketing price of Bitcoin has become a hot topic on social media, but analysts warn that the price hike coupled with public euphoria is often followed by short-term corrections.

The market analytic platform, Santiment, warns that increasing activity on social media can be an indicator of price correction. According to them, discussions on social media often indicate the high interest of retail investors, which is usually followed by price reductions when large investors start taking profits.

Bitcoin's "Fear and Greed" index is currently at level 88, suggesting the level of market psychology is in the extreme and Greed'' phase. This level last occurred last March. The Fear and Greed Index measures market sentiment from "extremal fear" to "extreme independence," and high numbers like this often reflect the phenomenon of "PHOMO" or fear of death among retail investors.

Santiment advises experienced investors to consider a "counter-trading" strategy, which is to take steps that are opposite to market sentiment. When social media is filled with optimism about Bitcoin reaching 100,000 US dollars, experienced investors may choose to sell or at least refrain from buying. On the other hand, when the market shows signs of a decline, they see this as an opportunity to buy at low prices.

At the time of writing, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at the level of IDR 1.45 billion per coin with a price increase of 5.9% in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, in the past week, the price of Bitcoin rose 23.5% based on data from CoinGecko, Thursday, November 14, 2024.
