    Social Dominance Spike

    Definition

    Social Dominance Spike Anomaly identifies abnormal spikes in social dominance metrics for cryptocurrency assets using statistical z-score analysis. It monitors pre-calculated z-scores from social data and detects when assets experience unusually high or low levels of social attention compared to their historical patterns.

    The anomaly processes z-score values that represent how many standard deviations an asset's current social dominance deviates from its historical average, triggering alerts when these values exceed statistical significance thresholds (default: 3.0 standard deviations).

    Use Cases

    • Trend Detection: Identifying cryptocurrencies experiencing viral social media attention or sudden drops in community interest
    • Market Sentiment Analysis: Understanding shifts in public perception and social sentiment toward specific assets before they impact prices
    • Risk Management: Detecting when assets are losing social traction, potentially indicating weakening fundamentals or community support
    • Trading Opportunities: Finding assets gaining unexpected social momentum that may precede price movements
