Greed and Fear Index has soared to 11 again. The stock market plunged last night, and the crypto market followed suit in panic, with the index stubbornly stuck at the 50 level.



The most heartbreaking phenomenon is this: good news triggers a rally, while bad news causes a crash. When the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates, the market actually falls; when they hint at holding steady, there’s another round of panic selling. Japan hikes interest rates? Don’t even mention it, the market continues to slide down. Even without any news, prices still plunge.

To put it simply, it’s now a collective psychology: no one dares to be too greedy because everyone is holding back a surge of fear. Good news is interpreted as bad news, and bad news directly triggers sell-offs. Under this emotional state, the crypto market is like a seesaw, swinging wildly and never stable.

This is outrageous. The good news causes a sharper drop, and everyone is suspicious of each other.

The market has never been rational; frankly, it's just a loss of confidence.

This is just outrageous. Good news and bad news both drop, and even when it doesn't move, it still drops. What’s the point of playing anymore? The market is numb now; it all depends on who has the strongest mentality. The index is stuck at 50 and not moving; it feels like only a major event can break the deadlock. Collective fear is more terrifying than collective greed. Honestly, at this point, the people who should be buying the dip are actually fleeing. One thing has been repeatedly confirmed: retail investors always react a beat too late. I’m done watching everything; I’ll wait for the market to figure itself out.

This is the illness of the crypto world. Reverse trading based on news has become the norm. Who understands? The index hitting 50 is really incredible, I just haven't decided which side to bet on yet. Everyone is betting on others' emotions, and in the end, everyone loses. It's hilarious. Good news is actually causing short squeezes. Who dares to take the other side now? The seesaw analogy is perfect. If this sideways movement continues, the index could get stuck completely.

This is a typical case of "both good and bad news lead to a drop." The market is completely irrational. Everyone has been scared off by this round of panic selling, and now no one dares to buy the dip. Is it so difficult for the index to break through 50? It feels like it will continue to fluctuate.

This is a game of psychological manipulation by the funds; no one dares to take over. Bad news causes a sell-off, good news also causes a sell-off; the market is just digesting fear. The 50 level is dead, and another wave of decline could come at any time. It's really exhausting. The index soaring to 11 indicates that big players are also betting against each other; no one has confidence. Now it's just waiting for that real trigger point, or continuing to range sideways and wear people out.
