As the crypto market plummets, the Fear and Greed Index is currently at 26, almost a year low. The last time it was at this level, SOL was at $11. In the past, the index was this low in January 2023, September 2023, and July 2022, and then the market started to rise. Everyone says to "sell when greedy, buy when fearful", but only 1% actually do it.
Many people think that the bull market is over, but crypto KOL cyclop believes that the bull market has not even started yet. Why is cyclop so confident? Here are 10 reference indicators he listed.
Stablecoin Index
The index tracks new capital entering the crypto market. It is currently far from the levels of previous cycles. Once liquidity increases, the market will grow accordingly.

YT Metrics (YouTube Views)
Compared to the previous cycle, the YT indicator has decreased by about 5 times. In 2021, Bitcoin was worth $70,000 and had 4 million page views per day. Now, Bitcoin is worth $70,000 and has about 800,000 page views per day. This shows that retail investor interest is still low and there is room for growth.

The following chart shows that BTC market capitalization accounts forcryptocurrency% of total market cap. Since April, BTC.D has been consolidating in a range of 54% to 57%. Once BTC.D falls below this range, it will mark the beginning of the altcoin season.
Coinbase Download Ranking
