The Fear and Greed Index went from 27 to 74 in less than two weeks. Has the market ever flipped this fast?

Two weeks ago the Fear and Greed Index was at 27. Deep Fear territory. The consensus was that crypto winter had no end in sight and the CLARITY Act was dead for 2026. Today it sits at 74. Greed. That is a 47-point swing in under two weeks. Bitcoin has been at its highest level since May and Ethereum at its highest since the end of January and early February. Yahoo Finance XRP is up almost 45 percent on the week. HYPE is the only major token still climbing while everything else takes a breather. The problem with a 47-point Fear to Greed swing in two weeks is that it is exactly the kind of sentiment environment where people make their worst decisions. Either they panic sold at 27 and are now watching the recovery. Or they are piling in at 74 thinking the bull market is back and about to get hurt if the September 15 CLARITY Act vote disappoints. Which camp are you in right now?
