The Score's sentiment category. Uses the Fear & Greed index (alternative.me). Contrarian: extreme fear lifts the score (green=floor); extreme greed lowers it (red=top).

How it works
1
We gather 6 categories
Sentiment, momentum, trend, derivatives, macro and network — from free or self-computed sources.
2
We blend them into one number
Each signal is normalized to 0-100 and weighted with a public, versioned formula.
3
You read it contrarian
High (green) = near the floor, accumulation zone. Low (red) = near the top, distribution / late cycle.
Measures whether alts are beating Bitcoin (0-100, our own data): the alt basket's 90-day performance versus BTC. High (purple)=altseason; low (amber)=Bitcoin season; ~50=balanced.

Each alt's 90-day performance vs BTC (how much its ALT/BTC ratio rose or fell), mapped to 0-100 (50 = same as BTC). The basket average is the index: above 50 = alts beating BTC. Our own signal.
The same open cycle-risk metric as BTC, computed by us from ADA's price vs its 2-year average (0 = floor, 1 = top). Each asset's 0–1 scale is calibrated on its OWN history (a shorter window than BTC), so read ADA against its own past — it isn't a one-to-one comparison with BTC's number.

Contrarian scale: high = market floor / accumulation, low = top / distribution.
ABYSS vs. Fear & Greed
The Fear & Greed Index is great for sentiment — in fact we use it as one of our components. ABYSS goes further: it blends 6 categories into one contrarian, per-asset, transparent and backtested number.
