Crypto Market Edges Up Despite Fearful Sentiment

Most major cryptocurrencies posted small gains over the last 24 hours, with ADA leading the pack at +4.6%, followed by LINK and LTC both up 1.6%. Bitcoin and Ethereum also nudged higher, while XRP and DOT dipped slightly into negative territory. Interestingly, the Fear & Greed Index sits at 29 ("Fear"), which means that even though prices moved up a little, many market participants are still feeling cautious and uncertain — a reminder that short-term price changes and overall market mood don't always point in the same direction.
