$BTC - Google search interest spiked sharply this week, moving from a stable baseline to levels near this cycle's highs before partially retracing.

Search volume spikes are a rough proxy for retail participation intensity. Historically, sudden attention surges bring increased volatility and emotionally-driven positioning - not necessarily in the direction the spike itself might suggest.

Worth cross-referencing against funding rates, OI, and Fear & Greed for a fuller positioning picture...
