Today my buddy threw in 300,000 at the position of 86,000.
You might think he is crazy.
But back in November 2022, when BTC fell to 15500, he did the same. At that time, the fear index was only 10, and there were voices everywhere saying "it will go to zero."
He invested 100,000 and took away 200,000 six months later.
Those who cursed him for being crazy at that time now dare to chase in as BTC rises to 100,000.
He once told me: "I never bet on price fluctuations; I bet on human nature."
This set of tools he uses is known by 99% of people, but very few actually use it correctly.
Today I will make this clear.
The Fear and Greed Index is known to everyone.
But how many really use it to make trading decisions?
Why?
Because most people treat it as a reference number, just glance at it and move on, not taking it seriously at all.
The index is segmented from 0 to 100 as follows:
• 0-25: Extreme Fear • 25-45: Fear • 45-55: Neutral • 55-75: Greed • 75-100: Extreme Greed
What time is it now? 27.
What concept?
In November 2022, when BTC dropped to 15500, the index was 21. In August 2024, when BTC breaks 50000, the index is 26.

To be honest, the fear index has been around for a while, but very few truly understand it. The logic your buddy has is somewhat like on-chain archaeology—requiring patience to comprehend the texture of history rather than being scared off by superficial fluctuations. The two bottoms from 21 to 26 are actually the best recording points of digital heritage.

Really, compared to this guy, I seem too timid. Back when I was 21, I saw it too, but I still didn't dare to take action, and now I regret it deeply.

I'm not exaggerating, the position at 27 this time is indeed interesting. I saw that wave in 2022, and at that time, there were way more people criticizing than believing. Looking back now, those who entered at the lowest point have long been laughing, while those who chased the price later are the dumb buyers. Human nature is just so valuable.
Last night, 210,000 people got liquidated.

Both times later proved to be the bottom.
What happened to those who entered at 21 and 26?
