The Fear and Greed index aspires to represent current emotions and sentiments towards Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrency market.

In other news, Glassnode also expressed its take on the situation of the market. It stated that BTC investors experienced one of the strongest weekly gains amid increased stress, and liquidity injections in the banking sector. A number of on-chain indicators suggest that the market is transitioning out of conditions associated with deep bear markets.

A number of smaller investors have displayed the tendency to be motivated to take profits out of the ongoing rally.

In addition, it has also led to an increase in mining revenues for previously struggling mining firms. Many indicators, tools, and experts are bullish for the leading crypto token which is also a catalyst for the Fear and Greed Index.
