Furthermore, the analysis of social volume indicated a similar pattern, with a peak of over 3,200 on March 22. Although the social volume remained decent, there had been a noticeable decline, with the press time figure hovering around 607 engagements.
Some possible Cardano social trigger
During the week, Cardano witnessed several significant developments. First, the release of Cardano node v.8.0.0 introduced a new governance action that simplifies on-chain SPO polls, streamlining the process. Lace 1.1.0 debuted, offering numerous enhancements and features to enhance the user experience. Notably, users can now recover their wallets using a 12- or 15-word recovery phrase and conveniently monitor the prices of their native tokens.
Meanwhile, Mithril’s team launched a new 2318.0 distribution, contributing to the overall progress of the ecosystem.
The introduction of the Cardano-based meme coin, SNEK, sparked a wave of meme coin mania, leading to an upsurge in discussions and social activities revolving around Cardano. These events potentially contributed to the recent increase in social engagements.
What the heck is this #Snek thing that people keep tweeting about?
