$TAO, $VRA, and $INJ Come on Top
The analysis was based on two key dimensions. There are two categories: engaged posts that show the number of likes, retweets, and comments, and interactions for all other actions users make on social platforms. These categories allow us to see how much attention the community and platforms pay to the project.
According to the data, Bittensor ($TAO) was the AI project with the most social media activity, with 5.7K engagements and 798.5K interactions. Therefore, it was the top choice for community involvement. The Dhamaka channel came in second, with 458K interactions and over 4K posts.
$QUBIC, $FET, and a Few Others Hold Strong Influence
$RENDER and $QUBIC were also in the top five, with 3.4K and 3.1K engaged posts, respectively. Fetch.ai ($FET) saw 3.0K engaged discussions and 304.9K interactions, indicating steady growth in AI and blockchain.
The top ten projects are $AIXBT, $DIA, $NEAR, and $THETA. There were 2.0K encouraged posts recorded, with $DIA getting 139.5K engagements and $AIXBT achieving 149.2K engagements. Overall, $NEAR created 1.9K posts and 189.1K interactions, but $THETA logged just 99.7K interactions though the same number of posts were made.
These numbers show the rise in popularity of AI-powered blockchain projects. Platforms that rely on decentralized technologies and machine learning are gaining traction, evident from the increasing online engagement they receive.
