Market overview
The Pulse score dropped to 75 from 90 in 24 hours, the kind of move that doesn't show up in spot prices but shows up in the next leg. 'Greed' still, but with a falling trend and a narrower base. Of 147 articles classified over the window, 132 read bullish, 15 read bearish, none neutral. Average importance landed at 5.6 on a 10-point scale, which is high for a session without a single macro print on the calendar.
The CryptoBeast composite, which weights sentiment 35%, news volume 25%, market trend 25% and on-chain 15%, settled at a market-wide average of 45.1 across 57 tracked tokens. That's the giveaway. Above-50 prints are confined to the top eight names. Of the 57 covered, 41 score 41 (bearish) and another two score below that, including BCH at 23 and ADA at 34. Breadth is thin. The bid is real where it exists. It does not exist most places.
No macro metrics came through the data feed at the cut, so the read here is driven by sentiment and news flow rather than Fear and Greed or global cap deltas. Treat the absence as a gap, not a signal.
BTC and ETH
Bitcoin scored 62 on CryptoBeast, with a sentiment input of 78 (weighted to 27.3), news volume at 55 (13.8) and on-chain at 55 (8.3). That's a neutral label by the model's bands, but the sentiment subscore tells the more useful story: 31 BTC-tagged articles over 24 hours, 24 bullish, 7 bearish, none neutral. A 3-to-1 bullish skew at an average importance of 5.0 is not a turn. It's continuation, with seven dissenters loud enough to dent the composite.
