$BTC #BitcoinGoogleSearchesSurge
As Bitcoin's price swung wildly – from $81,500 to below $60,000 and back to $70,740 – Google searches for "Bitcoin" hit a 12-month high, reaching a perfect score of 100 on Google Trends for the week starting February 1.
This surge, the highest since mid-November 2025, signals a retail investor comeback, with mainstream curiosity spiking during the dip.
Analysts like Bitwise's Andre Dragosch note "retail investors are coming back," while CryptoQuant's Ki Young Ju highlights US buyers turning active at $60,000, flipping the Coinbase premium positive.
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index plunged to 6, its lowest since June 2022, yet experts see this pessimism as a contrarian buy signal.
With over $700 million in liquidations early Friday, the rebound to $65,000 (and beyond) underscores how price crashes often reignite public interest, potentially fueling the next upswing.
This trend reflects Bitcoin's growing mainstream appeal, even in "crypto winter" – a period of stagnant prices that historically lasts about 13 months but could end sooner with renewed momentum.
