01

Stories, not articles

Reprints of the same news from different domains are merged into one story, so an item copied by forty sites counts once.

Open a story to see which domains carried it.

02

What the share means

The share is the part of all crypto stories in the period that carry this topic. A story can sit under several topics, so the shares of all universes add up to more than 100%.

The change compares it with the period before.

03

How the tone is read

Tone is positive minus negative among the topic's rated articles, on a scale where 50 is a balance. Neutral articles are left out.

With too few rated articles the index is not shown, because a handful of headlines should not set the mood.

04

How the list is ordered

By attention: how loud each story is right now — its reach, spread and speed on a fixed 0–100 scale.

Sort by tone, domains or time, filter by tone or search the headlines; the address keeps what you picked.
