Crypto Market Edges Higher While Fear Sentiment Lingers

Over the last 24 hours, most major cryptocurrencies posted small gains, with UNI leading the pack at +2.8%, followed by SOL (+1.3%) and AVAX (+1.2%) — meaning traders showed slightly more interest in these altcoins compared to others. Bitcoin held steady with a modest +0.8% move, and its "dominance" of 56.7% means it still makes up more than half of the entire crypto market's value. Despite the green prices, the Fear & Greed Index sits at 30 ("Fear"), which is a sentiment indicator suggesting that, overall, many market participants are still feeling cautious rather than confident right now.
