About the Fear & Greed Index

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index, published by alternative.me since Feb 2018, scores market sentiment from 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed) using six inputs:

  • Volatility (25%) — current vs 30/90-day averages
  • Market momentum / volume (25%)
  • Social media (15%) — Twitter sentiment + post volume
  • Surveys (15%) — currently paused
  • BTC dominance (10%)
  • Google Trends (10%) — bitcoin-related queries

The classic contrarian read: extreme fear is often a buying opportunity; extreme greed is a warning sign. Plot it next to BTC price (toggle below) to see how well the signal has actually called turns.

Caveats. The Fear & Greed Index is one source's interpretation of sentiment, not an oracle. Its survey component has been paused for some time, so the current weighting leans on volatility, momentum, and social-media signals. Use it as one input alongside fundamentals and price action — not as a standalone trading signal.
