Crypto market sentiment in one number, from 0 (Extreme Fear) to 100 (Extreme Greed). Extreme fear can mark oversold lows; extreme greed often precedes pullbacks.
| Index | Sentiment |

The Fear & Greed Index boils crypto sentiment into one number, 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed). It's a contrarian gauge: the crowd is usually most fearful near the bottom and most greedy near the top, so the extremes are where it's most useful.
The crowd is panicking. Historically these moments cluster near major lows - a long-term buying zone, not a time to sell.
Sentiment is balanced. No strong contrarian edge either way - the trend and other signals matter more here.
Euphoria is setting in. Historically near local tops - a time for caution and trimming risk, not chasing.
Sentiment, not price - it can stay fearful or greedy for a while. Use it as context for position sizing and contrarian timing, not as a standalone trigger.
It's a sentiment gauge that scores the market from 0–100 by blending signals like volatility, market momentum and volume, social media, and Bitcoin's share of the market. A low score means investors are fearful; a high score means they're greedy.
Right now it reads -.
Markets are driven by emotion as much as fundamentals. The index is a contrarian tool: "be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful." Extreme readings often mark local tops and bottoms - though sentiment alone is never a timing signal.
