Crypto Market Edges Up While Fear Sentiment Lingers

Most major cryptocurrencies posted small gains over the last 24 hours, with ADA leading the pack at +5.4% and XRP climbing +2.7% — meaning more buyers than sellers pushed those prices higher in that period. Bitcoin held steady around $64,364 with a modest +1% move, while Litecoin and Avalanche were among the few in the red, dipping -2.2% and -0.4% respectively. Interestingly, the Fear & Greed Index sits at 29 ("Fear"), which means that despite the green prices, overall market sentiment is still cautious — investors are not yet feeling confident, which can sometimes lead to more careful, hesitant trading behavior.
