Bitcoin $150K Price Predictions Fade as Market Sentiment Turns Neutral

Expectations for Bitcoin to surge toward $150,000 or higher are losing momentum, according to data from Santiment. The firm reports that aggressive price targets, once widely discussed across social media, are now “drying up,” signaling a shift in retail sentiment.

Bitcoin previously reached a peak near $126,100 in October before entering a prolonged correction. After falling to around $60,000 earlier this month, the asset has rebounded to roughly $68,000 but remains down more than 24% over the past 30 days.

Santiment notes that the ratio of bullish to bearish commentary has returned to neutral territory following a period of extreme pessimism. While reduced hype may reflect fading speculative excess, it also suggests lower conviction among traders.

Network Activity and Fear Indicators Signal Caution

Despite stabilizing sentiment, on chain data shows declining transaction volume, fewer active addresses and slower network growth. Meanwhile, the Alternative.me Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains in “Extreme Fear,” highlighting ongoing caution in the broader market.

Analysts suggest that sustained recovery may require renewed participation and stronger utility metrics.
