The Crypto
Fear & Greed Index

Four signals, weighted equally — each reading the market a different way, so the score isn't just the price chart in disguise.

Because the blockchain is public, we can see something stocks never reveal: whether the average holder is in profit or in pain — and whether they're selling. This has flagged tops and bottoms better than price alone.

Three things the headline number doesn't tell you: where the money's going, how stretched traders are, and how much cash is waiting on the sidelines.

The crypto index everyone quotes is alternative.me. It leans on social media and search trends; we lean on what traders are actually doing — options, leverage, on-chain. When the two disagree, that gap is the interesting part.

Is the mood just a crypto thing, or is the whole market feeling it? Here's a year of crypto sentiment next to the stock market's — when they split, that tells you a lot.

A year of daily readings, with Bitcoin's price laid over the top. Hover any point for that day's exact numbers.

No black box. Here's exactly what goes into the score — and you can pull the raw data yourself anytime.

How each signal works

Readings go back a year and grow daily. Extremes have often come right before the market turned — but treat this as context, not a buy or sell signal.
