Bitcoin price breaks diagonal downtrend line after three months 

The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index is considered a reliable indicator of a shift in investor sentiment in the crypto market. The indicator read 37/100, the first move out of the red zone from December 2021. 

The reading implies that investor outlook has turned bullish on Bitcoin for the first time in 2022. The index hit its lowest point this year in January when it indicated extreme fear at 8/100. As the indicator climbs, investor sentiment becomes less fearful. 

As investor sentiment on Bitcoin shifts, the asset crossed $41,000 overnight, breaking a long downtrend. Bitcoin price's rally to $41,000 added $170 billion to the crypto market capitalization. 

Another factor fueling investor sentiment is Jack Dorsey’s proposal to power Universal Basic Income (UBI) with Bitcoin. Dorsey proposed Bitcoin-based UBI to Aarika Rhodes, a US congressional candidate, in a recent Twitter space chat. 

Analysts have evaluated the Bitcoin price trend and noted that $41,000 remains the key level for Bitcoin price. Will Clemente, the Lead insights analyst at Blockware, believes that Bitcoin price is eyeing $47,000. Clemente has set a major target of $58,000 for Bitcoin price. 

FXStreet analysts have predicted a Bitcoin price relief rally to $43,000.
