Viewer interest in crypto content on YouTube has declined to its lowest level since January 2021, following a sharp drop in the last three months.

The failure at $94,000 for Bitcoin has found some support at the $90k level. That range now becomes the key for the coming weeks, with $ 100k and $85k as the key targets.
ITC Crypto founder Ben Cowen shared a 30-day moving average of views across various crypto YouTube channels, saying:
“So, it’s not just X and an algorithm change,” he said. It has “collapsed across all platforms, and has had a noticeable local decline since just October”.
“In reality, it’s been in a ‘bear market’ since 2021,” the analyst said.
The three month decline came after the Trump-fuelled market dump in October that wiped $19 billion of leveraged positions from the market. So it’s likely that many investors simply lost their accounts and decided to look elsewhere. That has coincided with a further breakout in silver.
Meanwhile, Crypto investment products recorded $454 million in outflows last week, with a four-day withdrawal run eroding part of the $1.5 billion in inflows seen during the first two trading days of 2026. Bitcoin was the leader with $405 million, leaving the listed products.
Markets are now backtracking on hopes for a March rate cut from the Federal Reserve, while recent price weakness has also hurt investor sentiment for crypto.
