Crypto Market Shifts To Greed Amid FOMO Frenzy As Investors Eye New Bull Run
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index has flipped from “Extreme Fear” to “Greed” in a matter of days as investors suddenly eye a new bull run.
Bitcoin touched $65,000 briefly today, July 16, after surging about 9% in the past week. BTC was trading up about half a percent at $63,180 as of 05:56 a.m. EST. Ether has soared 10% in the last seven days to trade at $3,395.
All the top-ten largest cryptocurrencies apart from Toncoin are in the green today, with the global crypto market cap climbing 1% to $2.43 trillion.
Amid the recent rally, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index hit 65, showing that the market is in a state of “greed.” The index is up from a low of 25 as recently as July 13.
Market intelligence platform Santiment attributes the recent rally to the fear of missing out (FOMO). The analytics platform called for cautious trading as the market “collectively becomes so bullish without many signs of fear.”
