Social sentiment
What it shows
The project's social and developer reach: Twitter/X followers and posts, Reddit subscribers and activity, GitHub stars and forks, plus a combined social score. Measures attention and engagement around the project.
How to read it
Look at quality, not just scale: a high active-user ratio and lively GitHub activity matter more than raw follower counts. A sudden reach spike without fundamentals can signal hype. Action: use social data as narrative context, combining it with on-chain and market metrics.
Parameters
- Twitter / X
- Follower and post counts: the project's reach and communication activity.
- Positive reading: Growing reach with regular posts: lively, active communication.
- Neutral reading: Follower count alone can be inflated by bots. Look at real engagement.
- Subscribers, active users and posts per day in the community.
- Positive reading: A high active-to-subscriber ratio: an authentic community.
- Negative reading: A large base but almost no activity: a dead or artificial community.
- GitHub
- Repository stars and forks: a rough measure of developer interest.
- Positive reading: High stars and forks, which means a technical project attracting developers.
- Neutral reading: Stars alone do not prove development pace, as living code is what counts.
- Social score
- An aggregate metric combining signals from different platforms into one number.
- Neutral reading: Treat it as a quick shortcut for market attention, not a measure of project quality.
Example
200k Twitter followers but only 50 active Reddit users and no new commits, which means large reach with little real engagement. Conversely: rising GitHub stars and high Reddit activity suggest authentic interest.
