BlockBeats news, on April 5, cryptocurrency market research firm Santiment stated that bearish discussions about Bitcoin on social media reached their highest level in five weeks; this week, the ratio of bullish to bearish social comments related to Bitcoin was 0.81, meaning approximately four bullish comments for every five bearish ones—the lowest level since February 28—reflecting a significant rise in fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) within the community.

Santiment analysts note that high levels of FUD often signal a potential market reversal, as the crypto market tends to move contrary to public sentiment. A surge in bearish sentiment is instead viewed as a potentially positive sign, with prices possibly improving "sooner than expected."
