DOGE on Twitter Crowd favorite, ether hated the most

 


Ether ( ETH ) is the most hated on Twitter out of five cryptocurrencies studied. The meme token Dogecoin ( DOGE ), on the other hand, is the crowd favorite.


That's the finding of a new report by TRG Datacenters, which analyzed tweets between January 2021 and January 2022 on five of the most popular cryptocurrencies. The company wanted to find out which digital assets are the most popular on Twitter.


According to the analysis, which examined Bitcoin ( BTC ), Cardano ( ADA ), Dogecoin, Ether and Litecoin ( LTC ), for Ether 29 percent of all tweets were rather negative. He had the largest share of negative tweets. Ripple was not included in this study. A possible reason for this would be that opinions on this coin vary widely.


Most criticisms of Ether relate to its speed compared to other Layer 1 alternatives and its cost of electricity. Most of the negative comments about Ether on crypto Twitter came when a bug caused Ethereum to briefly split into two chains in late August 2021 .


Bitcoin was the second most hated on Twitter. The proportion of negative comments here is 27 percent. Cardano's share was 16 percent, which puts it in third place by a wide margin. Litecoin was fourth with a share of just 8 percent.


The data in the report was collected to include only tweets with negative wording. The following terms in connection with the names of the respective cryptocurrencies were the basis: "hate", "is a scam", "disappointed with", "disappointed", "drop in", "bad", "lost money with", "loss with".


Dogecoin was the crowd favorite on the social media platform. Only 6 percent of all tweets about the popular memecoin featured negative sentiment. This means that 94 percent of all tweets related to DOGE reflect positive sentiment. This is an indication of the strength and cohesion of the Dogecoin community on crypto Twitter.


Dogecoin's popularity is heavily linked to the good relationship between the token and new Twitter owner Elon Musk . When Musk made it public that DOGE would be accepted as a form of payment for Tesla goods, sentiment was at an all-time high.


Chris Hinkle, Chief Technology Officer at TRG Datacenters, spoke about the multiple influence Twitter is having on cryptocurrency prices:


"First and foremost, meme stocks in particular have retail investors behind them. For larger currencies like bitcoin, tweets even lag behind price action, suggesting some institutional influence."

"This means that small-cap stocks and coins in general do experience price swings driven by retail investors," Hinkle added.


Hinkle went on to explain that Musk's recent acquisition of Twitter could result in a crypto market more influenced by retail investors. He claimed that Musk's influence could "perhaps pave the way for less algorithmic manipulation and the beginning of a new era of retail investing."

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
