Santiment

Besides price and volume, Santiment offers on-chain, social and development datasets as part of its crypto market data. On-chain metrics, the core of onchain analytics, show whether holders sit on a profit or a loss. The MVRV ratio divides the market capitalization of an asset by its realized capitalization, which values every coin at the price at which it was acquired. Santiment has labeled more than 65 million bitcoin addresses and 75 million Ethereum addresses, so its charts can separate exchange wallets from whales and other holder groups.

Social metrics come from more than 3 million messages that Santiment parses each month. Social volume counts the documents on Telegram, Reddit, X, Bitcointalk, 4chan and YouTube that mention an asset at least once. Development activity counts the GitHub events in the public repositories of a project and leaves out events unrelated to development, so projects that track issues on GitHub can be compared with projects that do not. The current version of the metric also removes activity by bots.

Sanbase is the main Santiment product, a web app with charts, screeners, watchlists, alerts and research posts from Santiment analysts and users. SanAPI is the GraphQL API that powers Sanbase, and the Python library Sanpy gives quantitative analysts direct access to the same data. Sansheets is a plugin that loads Santiment metrics into Google Sheets through simple spreadsheet functions.

Santiment also runs Insights, a research feed for crypto investors, traders and project teams, and the Santiment Academy, which documents how each metric is calculated. The older SQL product Santiment Queries gave access to a ClickHouse database of on-chain, financial, social and development data. It is closed to new users and is still supported for the customers who already use it.

Santiment builds its research tools for hedge fund managers, retail investors, crypto project owners and NFT creators. For funds and other professional users, SanAPI feeds the social, on-chain and financial datasets into an in-house data lake or a quantitative trading pipeline. Historical data back to 2009 lets a team back-test a strategy over several market cycles.

The business plans of SanAPI start with Business Pro, which allows 600,000 API calls a month with two years of history for restricted metrics and no real-time lag. Business Max allows 1,200,000 calls a month with full history, and the Enterprise plan sets custom limits.

Santiment crypto is the usual search for Santiment, a Swiss provider of behavioral data on crypto markets, and sometimes for its SAN token. The data covers prices, on-chain flows, social media mentions and GitHub development work for more than 2,000 crypto assets.

Sanbase has a free plan that shows data with a 30-day lag, limits charts to two years of history and allows three alerts at a time. Sanbase Pro costs $49 a month and Sanbase Max $249 a month, and both paid plans include current data and the full history.

SanAPI is a GraphQL API, and even the free plan includes 1,000 API calls a month, with a 30-day lag on restricted metrics. The Santiment Academy documents each metric with its definition and API name, and the Python library Sanpy wraps the same queries for data science work.

Social dominance is the share of crypto media discussions that mention a given asset, measured against the combined social volume of the 100 largest assets by market capitalization. Values above 100 percent can occur when the name or ticker of an asset is also a common English word.
