Crypto Fear & Greed Index Remains Stuck in 'Fear' Zone

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains entrenched in fear territory at a score of 25. This reading suggests that many investors are either selling their holdings or refraining from new purchases due to uncertainty.

The index is calculated using five weighted factors: price momentum of the top 10 cryptocurrencies, market volatility, derivatives data like put/call ratio, the Stablecoin Supply Ratio (SSR), and proprietary search data from CoinMarketCap. Each component provides a different lens on investor behavior.

A score below 30 has historically coincided with market bottoms or accumulation zones for long-term holders. However, it is not a timing signal, only indicating that sentiment is currently skewed toward fear.
