Bitcoin is ending 2025 in \u2018extreme fear\u2019 alongside the second-worst Q4 performance in history. The asset has declined by 23% this quarter, second only to 2018, which saw a 42% drop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, in his Christmas message, Binance founder, Changpeng Zhao \u2018CZ\u2019, <\/span>encouraged<\/span><\/a> demoralized traders and investors that this was the time to \u2018buy the fear\u2019, not extend the FUD.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGuess what, those who bought early did not buy at ATH, they bought when there were fear, uncertainty and doubt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Is a BTC reversal likely?<\/h2>\n

Well, past \u2018extreme fear\u2019 levels were opportunities, as CZ stated. The most recent scenario was in September 2024, when <\/span>Bitcoin [BTC]<\/span><\/a> traded at $54K. By the end of 2024, BTC doubled and surged above $100K.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Q1 2025, another \u2018extreme fear\u2019 linked to Trump tariff wars offered a discounted buying window. The asset dropped to $77K in Q1, but later rallied to over $126K by October.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
