Crypto Fear & Greed Index
A daily 0–100 reading from alternative.me aggregating volatility, market momentum, social media, surveys, dominance, and Google Trends signals into a single crowd-mood score.
How to read the index
0–24 Extreme Fear — historically these readings cluster around local capitulation lows; investors are risk-off, volumes thin.
25–44 Fear — mild risk aversion, typical of corrections or sideways consolidation.
45–54 Neutral — indifferent market, no strong conviction either way.
55–74 Greed — risk-on appetite, often mid-trend continuation.
75–100 Extreme Greed — historical distribution tops often line up with sustained Extreme Greed readings, but the signal is noisy — greed can persist for weeks during strong trends.
This is a crowd-mood indicator, not a price prediction tool. Pair it with the sentiment pulse (news-based) and CryptoBeast scores (multi-factor) for context.
