Can the Crypto Fear and Greed Index Be Manipulated?
Any single input to a Fear and Greed Index can be gamed, but moving the whole score is hard because it
blends many indicators.
1
Hard to game
It blends ten inputs, so no single one dominates.
2
Social is diluted
A hype campaign moves only a fraction.
3
Stay skeptical
No gauge is fully manipulation-proof.
