first_img The crypto fear and greed index has risen to "extreme greed," the first time since 2024

According to Decrypt, the cryptocurrency market sentiment has entered the "extreme greed" zone, marking the first time since the end of 2024. The crypto fear and greed index measured by CoinMarketCap reached 81 on Sunday evening and has remained at that level, surpassing the "extreme greed" threshold of 80. A month ago, the index was at 36 (fear), and a week ago it was at 41 (neutral), climbing 45 points in just 30 days, nearly erasing all the cautious sentiment accumulated in the first half of 2026.This is also the fastest sentiment shift for the index this year, and it is the only instance since CoinMarketCap began tracking the index where it jumped directly from "extreme fear" to "extreme greed." Alternative.me has tracked the index for a longer period, and its methodology still places the index in the "greed" range (6% away from extreme greed), but the momentum of the sentiment shift is consistent. The index hit a year-to-date low of 5 on February 5, deeply entrenched in "extreme fear," and from that bottom to this week's 81 points, the market has completed a round trip from total capitulation to extreme greed in six months.This sentiment reversal coincides with Bitcoin's performance. Bitcoin rose about 24% in a week, outperforming the overall crypto market, with its share of total market capitalization continuing to rise. The rally began last Wednesday when the U.S. Treasury announced it would double the size of long-term bond repurchases from $2 billion to $4 billion per transaction, weakening the dollar and prompting investors to view Bitcoin as an inflation hedge. After Bitcoin broke through $70,000, short sellers were forced to cover, liquidating over $4 billion in crypto shorts within two to three days;

first_img Gemini reaches an agreement with Apex to expand the distribution of the prediction market

According to CoinDesk, the cryptocurrency platform Gemini, founded by the Winklevoss twins, announced that it has signed a letter of intent with Apex Fintech Solutions to distribute regulated crypto prediction market contracts to brokerage clients through Apex's futures commission merchant (FCM). Under the arrangement, the subsidiary Gemini Titan will become the exclusive regulated trading venue for distributing crypto event contracts via Apex FCM, with Gemini responsible for execution and clearing, allowing brokers using Apex to offer related products without having to build their own connections to the prediction market exchange.This collaboration builds on Gemini's efforts to advance regulated prediction market layouts. Gemini Titan received a CFTC-designated contract market license in December 2025, and Gemini Olympus obtained a derivatives clearing organization license in April 2025. The two parties already have a foundation for cooperation, as Gemini launched commission-free stock trading for some U.S. clients in July, with Apex Clearing Corporation serving as the custodian and clearing broker. The company expects to finalize details in the coming weeks.Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss stated that he believes prediction is the future of the market. The report also mentioned the overall growth in trading volume in prediction markets, as well as the prediction market-related Command Center AI feature previously launched by Gemini.
