CoinMarketCap’s in-house Crypto Fear and Greed Index came in at 36, unchanged from yesterday, indicating the market remained in fear territory.
The index signals extreme fear as it moves closer to zero and extreme optimism as it approaches 100. CoinMarketCap calculates the index based on price moves among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, market volatility, derivatives-market indicators such as put-to-call ratios, the stablecoin supply ratio, or SSR, and CoinMarketCap’s own search data.Leave the first comment
