Crypto Fear & Greed Index
View the latest market-sentiment reading with its source and update time.
What this means
The index summarizes selected market signals into a sentiment range from extreme fear to extreme greed. It is context, not a trading signal.
Practical use
- Add broad sentiment context to network and price data.
- Avoid treating a single headline as the whole market mood.
- Compare today’s reading with your own risk plan.
How it is calculated
The value and classification come from Alternative.me and refresh once per day with visible attribution.
A stale label means the last successful value is being shown. Unavailable values are never replaced with zero.
Frequently asked questions
How often does it update?
The provider normally updates the index once per day.
Is fear a buy signal?
No. The index does not predict price direction or suitability for any person.
Why show a daily metric beside live fees?
They answer different questions: network cost versus broad market sentiment.
