Bitcoin: Fear and Greed Index Drops to 48, Weekly Average 50 Signals Neutral Crypto Market

COINOTAG News reported on August 28 that Alternative Data’s Fear and Greed Index stands at 48, down from 51 the previous day, with a seven‑day average of 50. This reading places the broader crypto market squarely in neutral territory, reflecting neither pronounced risk aversion nor exuberance.

The index operates on a 0–100 scale and aggregates multiple inputs to form a composite sentiment gauge. Component weights include Volatility (25%), Market Trading Volume (25%), Social Media Hype (15%), Market Surveys (15%), Bitcoin’s Dominance (10%) and Google Trends Analysis (10%), providing a multi‑dimensional view of market dynamics.

From a market‑structure perspective, a neutral index suggests short‑term consolidation rather than directional conviction, with emphasis on monitoring trading volume and Bitcoin dominance for shifts in market breadth and risk‑adjusted positioning.
