From “extreme fear” to “greed” In One Week

Believe it or not, we are no longer in a state of fear. In fact, we are well beyond that. According to the Bitcoin fear and greed index, we are now in a state of greed. All of this has somehow been achieved in the space of one week.

The price of Bitcoin is hovering around $47k at the moment. This represents a recent spike in price that has taken many by surprise.

The cost of all hard monetary assets will rise to stratospheric heights to protect against inflation and actual interest rates.
