“This Week’s Top Crypto Buzz: Santiment Highlights BTC, ETH, DOGE, USDT & EGLD”

Crypto analytics firm Santiment reported Friday that Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, Tether, and MultiversX were the most-discussed assets across online forums and social platforms this week.

Bitcoin Leads Conversations

Bitcoin remained the top talking point, with discussions centering on its “digital gold” narrative, long-term investment thesis, and the implications of mounting institutional and government involvement. Many also emphasized self-custody and node usage as key to network security.

Ethereum in Promotions

Ethereum was frequently mentioned in marketing campaigns for short-lived projects, where its transferability and utility were highlighted. Santiment said this reinforces ETH’s central role in how new tokens are introduced to investors.

Dogecoin in Spotlight

Dogecoin captured attention from two major developments: Rex-Osprey’s filing for the first U.S.-listed DOGE ETF, and Trump-backed Thumzup’s acquisition of 3,500 new mining rigs to expand operations.

Tether Expands Focus

Tether drew debate after revealing plans to increase exposure to the gold supply chain. Executives framed gold as “natural bitcoin,” signaling the company’s intent to diversify beyond digital assets.

MultiversX Concerns

MultiversX discussions centered on dilution fears from an expanding EGLD supply. Some expressed concern over projects migrating to rivals such as Sui, while others highlighted progress on ecosystem tools like xPortal and xMoney.

Since 2016, Santiment has tracked sentiment, on-chain flows, and market activity across thousands of crypto assets. Its weekly updates shed light on the projects driving the most community discussion.
