98.1% of all days since 2013-04-28.

Bitcoin volume

The volume traded yesterday was $29,461,458,313 – up from $24,406,920,575 the day before. That’s the highest daily trading volume since 11 September. High volume indicates that a significant price movement has stronger support and is more likely to be sustained.

Market capitalisation

Bitcoin’s market capitalisation as of yesterday was $242,250,997,936, up from $241,425,217,440 the day before.

Fear and Greed Index

We’re still in the green, though there was a sharp drop from 75 yesterday to 61 today. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing – while extreme fear can indicate that investors are too worried, when investors are getting too greedy that means the market may be due for a correction.

Global In/Out of the money

For any address with a balance of tokens, ITB identifies the average price (cost) at which those tokens were purchased and compares it with the current price. If the current price is higher than average cost, address is ‘In the Money’. If the current price is lower than the average cost, the address is ‘Out of the Money’.
