What is the Fear & Greed Index?
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index distills market sentiment into a single number from 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed) using volatility, momentum, volume and social signals. Extreme fear can mean assets are oversold; extreme greed can signal a market due for a correction.
