Crypto Fear and Greed Index Plunges to October Lows Amid Market Slump
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index has plummeted to levels last seen in October as Bitcoin and the broader crypto market experience a significant downturn in the final days of 2024.
The index, which gauges investor sentiment in the crypto space, has fallen to a "Greed" reading of 65. This represents an 8-point decline from yesterday's reading of 73 and is 5 points lower than a week ago. It's also the lowest since October 15th.

Trump Euphoria Sustained Index Above 70
Following Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election, investor sentiment in the crypto market became more optimistic in anticipation of relaxed crypto regulations. Since Trump's election, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has consistently remained above 70 until the recent dip.
A month ago, the index reached an "Extreme Greed" reading of 85, peaking at 94 on November 22nd, as pro-crypto politicians were elected to the Senate and House of Representatives.
