Cardano Sentiment Highest In 2024 So Far

The sentiment around cryptocurrencies has seen an improvement as BTC and others rally, a metric from analytics firm Santiment now shows.

One indicator of relevance here is the “Weighted Sentiment,” which is itself derived from two other metrics: the Sentiment Balance and the Social Volume.

The first of these, the Sentiment Balance, measures the net sentiment around an asset on major social media platforms at the moment.

This indicator works by having posts/threads/messages on these platforms run through a machine-learning model to determine whether they are being positive or negative about the cryptocurrency. It then subtracts the two types of posts to find the net situation on social media.

There is a flaw with this metric, though, which is the fact that it may not always be representative of the actual sentiment shared by the majority of the users, as it can only reflect the mentality of those who have participated in some discussion (i.e., made some posts).

The Weighted Sentiment also includes the second indicator: Social Volume. This metric tracks the total number of posts that talk about the given coin. In other words, it tells us about the amount of talk the asset is witnessing right now.

The Weighted Sentiment takes the Sentiment Balance and weighs it against the Social Volume. As a result, the indicator’s value only registers a spike (in either direction) when not only is there a high net sentiment on social media, but also, a large amount of users are partaking in discussion.

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Weighted Sentiment for the five top coins, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), BNB (BNB), XRP (XRP), and Cardano (ADA), over the past few months:

As you can see in the above graph, the sentiment around these top coins has seen an uptick recently. Cardano, in particular, has seen a jump in its Weighted Sentiment with the latest market recovery.

Currently, the indicator is at a value of 1.69 for ADA, while ETH, the cryptocurrency that the social media users are the second-most bullish towards, has it at around 0.80.

While the positive sentiment does suggest that investor confidence in ADA is still strong despite the poor year it has had so far, excessive hype has served as a bearish signal in the past.

Thus, assets like Cardano and Ethereum, which are seeing a lot of bullish sentiment, may not be in the best position to see a further surge. Bitcoin and XRP, on the other hand, still have their Weighted Sentiment at only mild positive levels, which can potentially work in their favor.
