LunarCrush Metrics Glossary

Definitions for every social and market metric LunarCrush tracks.

• Galaxy Score™ — A 0–100 composite score combining social activity, sentiment, and market momentum into a single real-time health signal.
• AltRank™ — A relative ranking of every asset by combined social and market momentum. Rank 1 is the strongest performer across the tracked universe right now.
• Social Volume — The number of public social posts mentioning a topic or asset over a period — the raw measure of how much a coin is being talked about.
• Social Dominance — The percentage share of total social conversation that a topic or asset captures within its category — a read on narrative concentration.
• Sentiment — The emotional tone of social conversation around an asset, weighted by engagement and reported as a 0–100 percentage.
• Social Mentions — The raw number of public posts that mention a topic or asset — the building block that aggregates into Social Volume.
• Social Engagement — The total interactions — likes, comments, shares, reposts, and views — on posts about an asset. A measure of reach, not just post count.
• Social Contributors — The number of unique accounts posting about a topic or asset — a measure of how broad a conversation is, not just how loud.
