Just to clarify the terms used in my question, Baker and Wurgler (2006) gives two definition of investor sentiment:
1) The propensity to take risks and to speculate.
2) The overall sense of optimism or pessimism about stocks

I believe these definition of investor sentiment also applicable for crypto investors. As of now I'm seeing people from both these classifications. When more people joining into one side, we can see that will be impacting into the conditions of crypto market. Basically I am into the side of willing to take risk as I am believing in to the futures of cryptos.

These are also the same people who start calling crypto as a scam because they lost money due to their own mistakes because its easy to blame others for your mistakes. Those guys who stick around would realize the potential gains for patience.

All the times we are having such people into this space but they could never get any chances to impact on the continuous progress of evaluation of this crypto space. I mean to say we should never bother them as they do not have any significance with respect to cryptos.

Investors and speculators usually have some differences in their mentality. Long-term investors may feel anxious when the market falls sharply. Short-term speculators are the most tragic. Their emotions are in sync with the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin rises speculators excited, speculators with bitcoin falling will feel sad or even desperate.

This is right. Some might respond in a worst tone which often leads to the panic selling of the coins and others might be more business minded who would rather keep the coins until the value is recovered again.

Emotions and market ups and downs are linked to the funds invested by investors. If investors invest heavily in the cryptocurrency market and the cryptocurrency market falls sharply, then investors will be crazy, but if it is a good trader, they will wait patiently. Poor people who invest in cryptocurrencies are often unable to sleep.

I would not call them investors like I have often said in the past. These people who cant handle their own assets in terms of risk management and capital diversification and not qualified to be labelled as investors. They are going to dig their own grave if they are going to panic and lose money and they deserve it.

These are also the same people who start calling crypto as a scam because they lost money due to their own mistakes because its easy to blame others for your mistakes. Those guys who stick around would realize the potential gains for patience.

Unfortunately, anywhere money is involved, sentiment is present and there is nothing to reverse that. The stock market, the fired market, the commodity market, every market in short, sentiments is there because that's the point where there are winners who are going home with profit while others are going to lose. In other to be on the winning side, then sentiment becomes an issue to put into consideration. That is the current position of the market in which the end of that is not in sight

I can't speak on the behalf of everyone involved in bitcoin or crypto but I can tell my own story about it. I have been involved with crypto for over 5 years now (closer to 7 years actually) and I have seen everything that ever happened here that matter.

Before 2012 there wasn't much story to be told so I was at the beginnings of all the drama of mt.gox even when they were still cashing out customers money and was working.

All these years had one thing in common, bitcoin is decentralized and definitely not to be controlled by any one person which caused a lot of scamming and shady stuff happening without any proper problem. There was a lot of websites and companies that took thousands of bitcoins and ran with it.

The only difference right now is that people see bitcoin is a commodity that they can make money and back in those days nobody really cared what the price was, people were caring about when they will be capable of buying stuff with their bitcoins, they cared about the adoption, they didn't want nasdaq or bakkt, they wanted wallmart and apple to accept it. That is the biggest difference on investor sentiment on cryptocurrency between now and back than.

I think how to manage the volatility of the market. When people getting upset when market is in downfall. Then when market is in increasing people so excited to gain profit but just a wink of an eye it will go down.

Everything depends on bitcoin, that is what causes the market sentiment to go up or down dramatically, just look at its current price and you will understand why everyone is so depressed since they are all losing money with the crash, so when looking for explanations about the market of cryptocurrencies do not complicate yourself, just look at bitcoin and you will know the truth of this market.

Yes.It's all about the nature of bitcoin.Investors sentiments about the cryptocurrency market gradually becomes higher when they really don't understand the nature of crypto in the first place.It has its high volatility which will make the market goes up or down.So never expect to see the market always in an upward trend.Learn to understand it from the start.

If people did what you are suggesting we will not have as much volatility since investors will understand that what we are seeing is nothing but a natural decrease in the demand that is being amplified by the whales to try to make even more people to sell their coins for a bad price and they are using this opportunity to try to get even more coins.

news may also affect the market, indeed investors are now smart they can know which news is true or just FUD, but indeed the impact of the news is very directly hit with the emotions of every investor, just as the current btc price drops, according to one source affected by the news will be a statement from Benolt coeure and head of BIS Agustine carsters, besides that there was news about civil sanctions from US stock exchange authorities for holders of bitcoin, and that was enough to make things chaotic and make old investors panic.

That is something a little bit hard not to experience in a volatile market, but generally, the easiest way you can at least overcome any emotional sentiment, is to understand that it is normal for the market to always behave this way most of the time, but it is left for you to understand that you are really focused on the long run and you understand there is potential in what you are holding as an investor. Cryptocurrency market is still very young, and volatility is something that we cannot run away from at this stage.

The whole bitcoin system started based on the sentiment. Also as the volatile nature of crypto kept the people interested, but the current stability is making the old investors bored

This market is still very new and trading volume is not large so I believe that its future development potential is very good. Put your trust in cryptocurrency because I think it will be a huge financial market in the future.

There has been a lot of buybacks from these levels, I think that would indicate that the price drop actually reached to a point where rich people started to see this as a big opportunity. Do not forget someone who can buy 10 thousand bitcoins usually doesn't need the money all that quickly.

If you and me invest into bitcoin and suddenly have to pay something urgently or have some emergency hospital trouble and what not, we may cash out our bitcoins to pay for those however someone that buys 10 thousand bitcoins usually doesn't need that money that much. Which tells me all those bitcoins bought and withdrawn from exchanges belongs to super rich people who decided that this is the best price to get bitcoin and now storing that coin someone like their ledger waiting for the storm to end.

Everyone is either scared or stressed, there is no other explanation for this. Market is incredibly fragile and the volume is SO low that anyone who wants to rule the market can and right now we are at the hands of a rich person who loves to see bitcoin burn while his own shit coin is going up with that money. He keeps on selling his bitcoins while buying his own shit coin in order to make the price higher and will work to make that one the "real" bitcoin.

The only good news about this is that he will not have too many bitcoins left after all of this hopefully and when he is out of ammo and his coins still sucks and only owned by him, there will be a world where no one is a big threat. We need to start figuring out a way to stop all this monopoly on bitcoin like the miners and rich folks who try to ruin it just for their own sake. That doesn't look decentralized at all.

in my opinion, many factors that influence market sentiment include the behavior of investors themselves who cannot carry out the risk as well as possible, as when prices drop they immediately sell panic automatically that will make prices fall even deeper. Bad news that befalls the crypto currency can also be the cause of the news market sentiment, of course, made by certain groups with the aim of dropping prices then they buy it at a cheap price

although many know that strategy, there are still many traders who fall into the trap. therefore psychological resilience is very important to deal with market conditions where anything can happen

psychology controll our emotion and trading execution.market and investors sentiment really give big influence to cryptocurrency price.market capitalization depend in how was the investors sentiment.

I am sure that the crypt market is regulated and controlled by whales.

It is not regulated but manipulated by whales. There is no denying that. One should learn to use that to your own advantage.

Quote

We are small traders and investors of the crypto market cannot in any way influence the price movements of the main crypto currencies.

Maybe you cannot manipulate the market directly but you can indirectly. For example, if you are able to get a cryptocurrency related social media account active and gather a number of followers, you could use that as a potential pump and dump group. Its not something easy to do but its possible.

Quote

For the whales, this is a great game in which they will always win. And we play in the casino on the “American Roulette” - those who managed to go to the cashier with a win that well done and calm, who continue to play that nerves jump and adrenaline plays in blood.

Not a proper analogy I would say, there are people who are waiting with patient nerves for years for low price to buy in. Nothing bad in that.
Agreed, timing for orders is important but regretting your own choice is not a good thing. Be brave and firm to your beliefs.

Any movement of prices both up and down will excite the mood of investors. If today the price goes up sharply, many will regret not buying yesterday, if the price goes sharply to the bottom they will regret not selling yesterday.))

The emotional impact of cryptocurrency is still relatively crazy. When the market continues to decline, many investors will leave the cryptocurrency. Now there is such a problem. Panic selling is a disaster for the cryptocurrency altcoin.
