The crypto market is buzzing with activities in the ongoing bull cycle. As typical of these times, extreme greed has gripped the market as investors, both old and new entrants, seek to profit from the uptick in the prices of different assets.
<h2 id="is-bitcoin-s-historic-milestone-fueling-greed">Is Bitcoin’s historic milestone fueling greed?</h2>
According to <a href="https://x.com/BitcoinFear/status/1859756183822778816" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">data</a>, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index has entered the "Extreme Greed" zone with a value of 94.
For clarity, the index measures crypto market sentiment to gain insights into investors’ dispositions toward different assets. It is graded on a zero scale, implying "extreme fear," to 100, indicating "extreme greed."

 Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index is 94 - Extreme GreedCurrent price: $98,431 <a href="https://t.co/cvw1M9O99d" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/cvw1M9O99d</a>— Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index (@BitcoinFear) <a href="https://twitter.com/BitcoinFear/status/1859756183822778816?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">November 22, 2024</a>

Thus, a score of 94 shows that market participants have become highly optimistic and confident about Bitcoin’s price movement. This ecstatic feeling usually triggers increased speculation of future prices and strong buying activity in anticipation.
As of this writing, Bitcoin <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">waschanging</a> hands for $98,600.30, representing a 0.49% increase in the last 24 hours. With approximately $1,400 from hitting $100,000, many investors speculate and "wish" the leading digital currency would cross the <a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-up-500-since-historic-crash-below-16000-two-years-ago" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">historic</a> milestone.
Market analysts say these speculations might have caused the huge spike in the fear and greed index. They emphasized that Bitcoin’s high price has made many investors accumulate the coin and other bullish assets. These investors fear they could miss out on further gains if further price appreciation occurs.

However, market trend observers have highlighted that investors need to exercise caution when the index hits extreme greed as it currently exists. They maintain that this signals that the market has been overbought or <a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-fear-and-greed-index-shifts-to-greed-zone-suggesting-btc-may-be-overheated" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">overheated</a>, increasing the possibility of price corrections.
Interestingly, with Bitcoin’s price near the significant <a href="https://u.today/novogratz-bitcoin-nearing-100k-is-just-the-start" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">psychological level</a> of $100,000, some believe that the score of 94 represents a bullish signal that might fuel further upticks.
While crypto trading lacks predictability, expert opinions agree that investors should exercise caution as they trade. Investors have been urged to keep a keen eye on market trends, especially a sharp reversal in BTC's price. <a href="https://u.today/extreme-greed-dominates-crypto-market" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read original article on U.Today</a>
