The combined moving 7-day average crypto market sentiment score (sentscore) for the top 10 coins by market capitalization has dropped below 5, to the current 4.98/10, as shown by crypto market sentiment analysis service Omenics. Last week it stood at 5.22 following a minor rise.
Seven coins have seen their respective scores drop over the course of the last seven days. The list is led by binance coin (BNB) and its 18.5% drop, with XRP‘s 6.4% being the distant second. Significantly, both bitcoin (BTC) and ethereum (ETH) - as the two coins that have stood the longest in the positive zone - have also dropped, with ETH falling into the neutral zone, leaving BTC alone in the green zone.
What’s more, only three coins now have a score above 5. Though its drop was the smallest, EOS is the closest to the negative zone.
Meanwhile, the three coins whose scores have gone up this time around are chainlink (LINK), cardano (ADA), and tether (USDT). All three were on the red list last week, with LINK leading at the time as well.
