ETH, SHIB, XRP social media mentions soar

After a large decline in crypto prices last week, the tweet says, mentions of certain cryptos in discussion on social media platforms has spiked. These tokens are top ten ETH, ADA, XRP with SHIB and Polygon’s MATIC joining them.

The majority of other cryptocurrencies are being discussed a lot less, the Santiment analytics team pointed out.

Earlier this year, in late August, SHIB also saw its own three-month record in social media mentions.
