How fearful or greedy is the market right now? Crypto Fear & Greed Index (alternative.me). Returns the current `value` (0-100) and `classification` (extreme fear / fear / neutral / greed / extreme greed) as their own fields, plus `history` — the last 90 daily readings by default, so you can see whether today is a move or a plateau. The index is a contrarian-read sentiment gauge, not a timing signal: it says where sentiment stands, not what price does next. The window is capped and the `range` block states requested / granted / available days with the reason — a short series here is a window, not a young index. On Pro and Elite two Arena-derived blocks add what the upstream index does not publish: `cadence` (how far smoothed sentiment has travelled versus ~90 days ago) and `tempo` (how FAST the index is moving — 7d and 30d change ranked as a rolling percentile against three years of same-direction moves, not a fixed threshold; rank compares with its own history, not with "normal"). On Free both blocks are present but their values are null with a stated reason. For the regime around a reading use arena_get_cycle; for what followed comparable sentiment states use arena_get_historical_analog(preset="deep_fear"). [Free tier · cadence/tempo Pro+]
