CoinGabbar’s Opinion
The crypto market is experiencing the highest level of fear, at 15, indicating fear among investors. Bitcoin and Ethereum are stable, whereas stablecoins and the best DeFi projects seem to be safer. The long-term resilience of institutional shifts such as the shift of Coinbase and the relaunch of Polymarket can be recommended, though conservative investment in blue-chip assets is recommended in times of uncertainty in the market.
