Internet Computer Investors Are Showing Signs Of Euphoria
According to data from the on-chain analytics firm , a large number of investors are talking about ICP following its recent bullish momentum. A relevant indicator here is the “social volume,” which measures the total number of social media text documents that contain mentions of a given asset.
The text documents here refer to a collection of data assembled by Santiment that includes posts and messages from social media websites like Reddit, Telegram, and Twitter.Now, “social dominance” is a metric that compares the social volume of the given cryptocurrency with that of the top 100 assets (by market cap) combined. Here, the coin of interest is Internet Computer, so what this metric tells is how much of the discussion on the Internet related to cryptocurrencies, in general, includes the topic of ICP.

The drawdown may have in fact already begun, as the cryptocurrency’s price has gone down by more than 5% during the last 24 hours. Though, not all the gains of the recent rally are lost yet, as the asset is still up 16% in the past month.ICP Price
