Crypto Market Edges Up While Fear Sentiment Lingers

Over the past 24 hours, most major cryptocurrencies saw modest gains, with Litecoin (LTC) leading the pack at +3.48% and Solana (SOL) climbing +1.89% — meaning more buyers than sellers pushed those prices higher during this period. Bitcoin (BTC) held relatively steady at around $64,438, which helps explain why its "dominance" remains high at 56.4%, meaning BTC still makes up the biggest slice of the overall crypto market. Interestingly, the Fear & Greed Index sits at 28 ("Fear"), which is a market sentiment tool that reflects how nervous or cautious most participants are feeling right now — even when prices are ticking upward, emotions don't always follow the same direction.
