What Is Ethereum?
The emotional amplifier.
Ethereum is the network that made crypto programmable, launched in 2015 as a world computer for smart contracts and now the settlement layer for most of decentralised finance, stablecoins and tokenised assets. On the CFGI Ethereum fear and greed index it plays a distinct structural role: where Bitcoin is where the market's mood is read first, Ethereum is where that mood is loudest. Whatever the crowd feels, ETH's crowd feels it harder.
The CFGI read: Ethereum touched every zone we score this year, and did it with eerie symmetry: 8 days in Extreme Fear, 8 in Extreme Greed, a three-day streak at each extreme. The bottom, 13 out of 100 on 5 February 2026 with the price at $1,848, came on the day the whole-market index printed its own low, with 98 of the 102 crypto assets then scored in Fear or worse and even the stock side of the platform suffering its broadest Extreme Fear day of the year, 34 of 246 names. The top, 86 on 13 August 2025 at $4,740.61, crowned an eleven-day run of Greed or better. When ETH is at an extreme, the whole market usually is.
Ethereum Fear and Greed Index History
Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.
The amplitude shows up in single days. On 25 August 2025 Ethereum's score fell 41 points, from 82 to 41, the kind of one-day emotional collapse almost nothing else on the board produces, and on 13 October 2025 it jumped 37, from 27 to 64. Among the tokens with a full year of data, ETH counts the 11th most days of Extreme Fear, yet by average score it sits with the calmest quarter of the crypto crowds we track. It visits the extremes constantly. It just never moves in.
The year those swings decorated was a hard one: the price halved, down 49.9% from $3,832.05 to $1,921.45, falling from a high of $4,868.56 on 22 August 2025 to a low of $1,567.37 on 6 June 2026, the final day of a three-day Extreme Fear streak. The recovery since has been orderly rather than euphoric, eleven days of Fear or worse in November 2025 giving way to a Neutral-heavy spring, and ETH closes the window at 62, in Greed, part of the picture the live Fear and Greed Index for the whole market reads every day.

Ethereum Fear and Greed Index FAQ
What is the Ethereum Fear and Greed Index today?
The Ethereum Fear and Greed Index today is 57/100 on the daily view, showing Neutral. It summarizes live Ethereum market sentiment on a 0 to 100 scale.
How is the Ethereum Fear and Greed Index calculated?
CFGI combines price action, impulse, volatility, volume, technicals, social sentiment, dominance, search interest, whale activity and order book pressure into one Ethereum fear and greed reading.
What is a good Ethereum Fear and Greed Index reading?
There is no single good reading, because the index measures mood rather than value. Extreme Fear below 25 marks the points where sentiment is most washed out, and Extreme Greed above 75 the points carrying the most risk, so what counts as good depends on whether you are buying or selling.
How accurate is the Ethereum Fear and Greed Index?
It reads sentiment accurately and predicts price poorly, and those are two different things. The score reflects what the Ethereum market feels right now across ten live inputs, so treat it as a risk gauge rather than a forecast: it tells you how one-sided the crowd has become, not what happens next.
What does the Ethereum Fear and Greed Index measure?
It measures the emotional state of the Ethereum market on a 0 to 100 scale, from extreme fear at 0 to extreme greed at 100. CFGI builds that number from ten indicators including price action, volatility, volume, momentum, technicals and social sentiment, rather than from price alone.
How do I use the Ethereum Fear and Greed Index?
Most people use it to size risk rather than to time entries. The extreme readings are the useful ones: they flag when the crowd has become one-sided, which is when caution costs least and greed costs most. Read it alongside price and volume, never on its own.

The Ethereum Fear and Greed Index is updated every 15 minutes, so the live reading can change as Ethereum market conditions shift.
