Bitcoin Nears $73,000 in Relief Rally as Fear and Greed Index Stalls at 22

In the past 48 hours, Bitcoin has rallied nearly 8% and is now testing the $73,000 level, yet sentiment remains weak with the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index stuck at 22. Despite this rebound, the cryptocurrency is still down 42.6% from its all-time high set about five months ago. Recent data show that a brief improvement in early January followed a deep slump in December 2025, but February's extreme fear and single-digit readings have left traders cautious about the latest move.
