CMC Crypto Fear & Greed Index drops to 15 as market sentiment returns to Extreme Fear

๐Ÿ“‰ The CMC Crypto Fear & Greed Index is now at 15, down from 16 yesterday, 20 last week, and far below 37 last month. This shows that crypto market sentiment has weakened sharply after Bitcoinโ€™s extended pullback.

โš ๏ธ BTC is currently trading around 59,500โ€“63,000 USD, significantly lower than its late-2025 peak. When deep price declines happen alongside Extreme Fear, investors tend to become more cautious, liquidity gets thinner, and volatility can be amplified by large orders.

๐Ÿ“Š Derivatives data also shows rising pressure, with 24h liquidations near 885โ€“900 million USD, mainly from previous Long orders. However, funding rates near zero or slightly negative suggest that Long-side FOMO has cooled down and market leverage has partly been flushed out.

๐Ÿงญ From a market perspective, Extreme Fear often creates conditions for a technical rebound due to oversold sentiment, but it does not confirm that a bottom is already in. If ETF flows and macro data do not improve, BTC may continue to move sharply before forming a clearer balance zone.
