Uniswap and Bitcoin: A tale of FOMO amidst market corrections

• Uniswap saw a FOMO that ushered in price correction.
• BTC has fallen off the $69,000 price range.

The price trend of Uniswap [UNI] stirred up Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) on the 10th of June, suggesting a potential correction. This correction has already begun, but might not be solely due to FOMO.

Bitcoin [BTC] also experienced a notable decline, and its trend typically impacts the broader market.

Uniswap and Bitcoin: Comparing social metrics

According to recent data from Santiment, Uniswap saw a spike in its social dominance on the 10th of June. The data indicated that UNI was the most notable among assets experiencing an increase on that day.

The price surge brought significant attention to UNI, creating FOMO. 

However, the rise in price and social dominance was more of a bearish signal than a bullish one, especially considering the concurrent decline in Bitcoin, which typically influences the broader market sentiment.

The decline has pushed Uniswap into a bear trend. Its Relative Strength Index (RSI) showed that it is currently below the neutral line.

This decline is attributed to the rise in FOMO and the recent decline in Bitcoin.
