📰 Just Good to Know

What’s the Crypto Fear and Greed Index?

❕ This index gauges the emotional state of the market, helping you spot whether panic or hype is pushing prices around.

When fear takes over (0–25), people sell in a rush, prices tumble — and savvy traders see opportunity in the chaos.

When greed dominates (76–100), the crowd piles in, prices surge — and bubbles start forming. That’s often the signal to take a step back and secure your gains before the mood flips.

By analyzing chatter, volatility, and volume, the index offers a daily readout of market psychology — because in crypto, emotions move faster than logic.

📣 Mark Uyeda, SEC acting chairman:

"Incumbent crypto asset trading platforms seeking to offer trading in tokenized securities also face unique obstacles.

Unlike securities exchanges, crypto asset trading platforms are typically vertically integrated with custody, execution, and clearing all occurring on the same platform.

Blockchain technology offers the potential to execute and clear securities transactions in ways that may be more efficient and reliable than current processes.

For example, blockchains can be used to manage and mobilize collateral in tokenized form to increase capital efficiency and liquidity.

Additionally, decentralized finance software protocols allow users to transact on a 24/7 basis via smart contracts".
