Been working on this for a while and curious what people think. Crypto is very narrative driven compared to other markets

    One week it's AI tokens, then suddenly memecoins, then RWAs and so on. Many times attention moves first and then price follows after, especially if KOLs or whoever are chatting about certain projects.

    Basically, by the time price moves, the conversation had already exploded earlier on X or Reddit etc. I couldn't find good datasets around this so built one myself XD

    So I built an API that tracks:

    • narrative momentum

    • market sentiment shifts

    • "dumb money vs smart money" sentiment

    • social mindshare

    Reliably across the top 1000+ tokens.

    The idea is basically to expose that data so people can actually test narrative strategies rather than guessing. Mainly built it because I couldn't find good narrative datasets anywhere.

    What's your take? Is anyone here already doing sentiment / narrative research or building systems around it?

    PS: you can find the Docs by searching: ruma crypto docs

    Built an API to track narrative and sentiment shifts across crypto – looking for feedback

      Interesting stuff

      Narrative is just one component imo of market moves, but it’s a key signal

      How are you gathering this data though and how much are you getting? Also is this API live?
