Market sentiment
Crypto and equities use different indexes. History and snapshots stay with the source that produces them. If one API is down, the other still renders.

The Fear & Greed Index compresses crowding, volatility, and safe-haven bid into a 0–100 score. Crypto (alternative.me) and U.S. equities (CNN) are different machines: Bitcoin weights social volume and dominance; CNN weights VIX, junk bonds, put/call, and breadth. Treat them as two dashboards, not one mood.
Crypto tape
alternative.me 63 · Greed
56–75 is when social feeds get loud. Trim into strength, raise cash a little, and stop adding risk just because the last five sessions were green. Greed pays the patient, not the late long.
Equity tape
CNN 33 · Fear
The 26–45 band is caution, not collapse. Prefer balance-sheet strength, BTC/S&P beta you already understand, and avoid new leverage while liquidity is thin. Fear often fades in days; forced selling does not.
