Social Dominance

Definition

Social Dominance shows the share of the discussions in crypto media that is referring to a particular asset or phrase.

The metric is build on top of the Social Data.

Please note that metrics may undergo changes in historical values due to automated recalculations triggered monthly. We constantly update our labels which helps us to keep labels as fresh as possible but result historical data changes. Any modifications to labels, social sources, or relevant jobs will prompt recalculation for the previous month's data. Within a 12 hour period, metric can be supplemented with new data.

Social Dominance for an Asset

Social Dominance for an asset compares the Social Volume of that asset to the combined social volume of the 100 largest assets by marketcap.

Social Dominance of 50% for an asset means that the number of messages/posts that discuss this asset equal half the number of messages/posts that discuss the Top 100 assets.

This definition allows the social dominance of an asset to exceed 100%. This can happen for assets whose name and/or ticker is a very common English word.

Social Dominance for a text phrase

Social Dominance for an arbitrary text phrase compares the Social Volume of that search term to the total number of documents available. This essentially computes the percentage of all documents that match this search term.
