Daily sentiment score from 0 to 100, paired with BTC price so fear and greed shifts can be interpreted against trend structure.
Volatility (25%): Current volatility and maximum drawdowns of Bitcoin against the 30-day and 90-day averages. An unusual rise in volatility signals fear.
Market Momentum/Volume (25%): Current volume and momentum against the same 30/90-day averages. High buying volume in a rising market signals greed.
Social Media (15%): How fast and how often posts about Bitcoin receive interactions. Unusually high interaction signals greed.
Surveys (15%): Weekly crypto polls. The publisher currently has this factor paused.
Dominance (10%): Rising Bitcoin dominance signals a fearful retreat from alt-coin speculation, while shrinking dominance signals growing greed.
Trends (10%): Google Trends data for Bitcoin-related searches, including fast-rising related queries such as 'bitcoin price manipulation', which signals fear.
The index is calculated and published by Alternative.me; Kodexius shows its published daily values and does not recompute them. It covers Bitcoin only, and the factor weights above are the publisher's own description, so any factor can change or pause on the publisher's side. The five bands are the publisher's own labels for whole-number readings. The BTC line is the daily close from Blockchain.com. The newest index reading carries the date of the still-running UTC day, which has no close yet, so the price line ends a day earlier. A reading describes the mood on that day and is not a forecast.
