Extreme Fear and a green board are not supposed to coexist, yet here we are into the US close. The Fear & Greed Index printed 12, deep in Extreme Fear, while $BTC quietly reclaimed $61.9K after defending $60.4K intraday. What I watch in this kind of session is not whether the bounce holds on its own, but who is leading it. Today it is the alts: $ETH up 4.5% to ~$1,629, SOL and XRP both up over 4%, while BTC lagged at under 2%. When alts outrun majors during a relief move, it usually means risk appetite is returning faster than the sentiment gauge admits. The narrative fuel is Saylor again hinting at another Strategy Bitcoin buy, which keeps the institutional-demand story alive even on a fearful tape. My read: the divergence between a panicked index and a steadily bid market is the part of this session worth tracking into the next one. Levels I am marking: $60.4K as intraday support, $62.9K as the rejection wick to clear. What does an Extreme Fear reading mean to you when price simply will not confirm it?
