Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index

According to the Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index, a metric that highlights investor sentiment across the market as prices fall and rise, the current price scenario has BTC in the “Greed” phase. As prices crossed the two levels of $28k and $29k, the index shot above the 55 mark to suggest FOMO was in play as the market reacted to the latest crypto news.
