Investor sentiment in crypto is now at the same level it was during the 2022 Terra-LUNA crash that sent shockwaves through the crypto market.
Google worldwide search volume for “crypto” is hovering near one-year lows, reflecting weak investor sentiment amid a broad market downturn that reduced the total market capitalization of crypto from an all-time high of more than $4.2 trillion to about $2.4 trillion.
Worldwide search volume for “crypto” is 30 out of 100 at the time of this writing, with a reading of 100 indicating the highest level of search interest, which was last reached in August 2025 in parallel with the market capitalization high. The 12-month low is 24, according to Google Trends data.
Search volume in the US featured a similar pattern, with volume peaking at 100 in July and dropping to below 37 in January. However, US search figures diverged from worldwide volume data by surging back up to 56 in the first week of February.
