Dogecoin & Apecoin Are Among Memecoins That Fell Prey To FOMO Recently
Oct 24, 2024 at 02:00 pm
The on-chain analytics firm Santiment has revealed the potential reason behind the corrections that Dogecoin and Apecoin have faced recently.
On-chain analytics firm Santiment has revealed a possible reason behind the recent corrections faced by Dogecoin and Apecoin.
According to Santiment in a recent post on X, the Positive Sentiment vs. Negative Sentiment Ratio has spiked for Dogecoin and other memecoins recently.
The “Positive Sentiment vs. Negative Sentiment Ratio” here refers to an indicator that tells us whether major social media platforms are leaning towards positive or negative comments right now.

This indicator uses a machine-learning model designed by the analytics firm to separate between comments pertaining to negative and positive sentiments.
When the value of the metric is greater than zero, it means the total number of positive posts/threads/messages is outweighing that of the negative ones. On the other hand, the indicator being under this threshold suggests the dominance of bearish sentiment on social media.
Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in this indicator for four assets over the past few months:
As you can see in the above graph, Dogecoin and Apecoin both saw spikes in the Positive Sentiment vs. Negative Sentiment Ratio recently, indicating a large amount of positive comments related to these coins were made on social media.
Interestingly, as the analytics firm has pointed out, these spikes coincided with tops in the DOGE and APE prices. The other two memecoins listed in the chart, GIGA and GOAT, also saw a similar pattern, although their tops came before that of the former two.
While positive sentiment can suggest belief in the market, a large amount of it can be an indication of excessive hype, which is something that has historically led to tops for not just memecoins but cryptocurrencies in general.
“Prices typically always go the opposite direction of the crowd’s expectations, and when the crowd gets extreme on either the bullish or bearish end, it becomes highly predictable to buy or sell,” Santiment adds.
Given the timing of the recent positive spikes in the indicator, it would appear possible that the Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) that developed among the investors was the reason behind the corrections that Dogecoin and others have faced.
