Bitcoin just suffered a sharp crash down to $65,000, forcing traders who borrowed money to buy it to sell automatically. However, market sentiment has hit 'extreme fear,' which is often a sign that a rebound is around the corner.

## Idea

Bitcoin's sudden drop to $65,000 triggered a massive wave of forced selling, essentially flushing out the most speculative traders. While crashes feel scary, these forced liquidation events often exhaust sellers and create a strong floor for the price. With market fear gauges flashing 'extreme fear,' historical patterns suggest Bitcoin is heavily oversold and due for a bounce back toward recent highs. Buying when everyone else is panicking is a classic way to catch a rebound as the selling pressure dries up.
