Santiment Research: Top Mentions
Santiment has released data detailing the most frequently mentioned crypto founders by analyzing discussions on platforms such as X, Reddit, Telegram, 4Chan, Farcaster, and Bitcointalk. Topping the list is the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto.
Top 10: Who Are They?
According to Santiment, the top three include Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin, Do Kwon, the co-founder of Terra, and Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum. Other figures in the top 10 include Justin Sun, founder of Tron, Sam Bankman-Fried, former CEO of FTX, Roger Ver, an investor and proponent of Bitcoin Cash, and the anonymous founder of Shiba Inu, Ryoshi.
Impact on the Market
Santiment notes that when one of these names starts trending on social media, the volatility of the crypto market typically increases. This is because cryptocurrency prices can rise or fall depending on positive (FOMO) or negative (FUD) community sentiment.
Santiment's data underscores the significant influence that founder figures have on the crypto industry and the community's reaction to their activities.
