According to Alternative.me data, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index has dropped to 20, signaling "extreme panic" in the market. This is a further decline from yesterday’s 27 ("panic state"), reflecting worsening investor sentiment amid ongoing price fluctuations.

The sharp drop follows recent sell-offs, regulatory concerns, and global economic uncertainty, pushing many traders into a risk-averse stance. Historically, extreme fear can indicate buying opportunities, while prolonged panic phases may lead to further instability.

Investors are closely watching market movements, particularly in Bitcoin and Ethereum, to gauge whether the current sentiment could signal a market bottom or continued bearish momentum.
