CryptoHype — Crypto Hype Score and Retail Demand

CryptoHype is a live crypto market dashboard that measures how intense the market is right now and whether retail or speculative demand is keeping up.

CryptoHype Score

The Hype Score is direction-agnostic and rises during major rallies or sell-offs. It combines Market Activity, Public Attention, Crypto-Native Attention, News Heat and Sentiment Intensity.

Current methodology weights are Market Activity 30%, Public Attention 25%, Crypto-Native Attention 20%, News Heat 15% and Sentiment Intensity 10%.

Retail Demand

Retail Demand is CryptoHype's proxy for fresh speculative demand entering the market, using Stablecoin Supply, Derivatives Demand and On-chain Participation.

News Heat

News Heat measures how unusually intense crypto news publishing is compared with recent conditions, using a rolling baseline across multiple crypto publishers.
