Hey devs! 👋
We’re super excited to announce the launch of our first ready-to-use platform feed: bitcoin-x!
This brand-new feed pulls personal sentiments from real X.com posts about Bitcoin, filters out the bots, promotions, and noise, and delivers clean, hourly-updated sentiment and emotion data you can start using today. No setup, no manual posting—just query the stats and go.
Whether you’re building trading signals, market dashboards, or research tools, bitcoin-x gives you an always-on pulse of how the Bitcoin community on X actually feels in real time.

Real-World Use Cases (Yes, Including Automated Trading)
The bitcoin-x feed is perfect for anyone who wants to turn crowd emotion into actionable insight. Some ideas:
Automated Bitcoin trading strategies — Hook the hourly sentiment avgScore and variance flags into your bot. Sudden spike in “ANTICIPATION” + positive trend? Could be your buy signal. Sharp fear surge with high variance? Maybe tighten stops or go short.
Market dashboards & alerts — Build a live widget that shows today’s Bitcoin mood on X and pings your team when an emotional spike is detected.
Research & backtesting — Pull weeks of daily rollups to correlate sentiment shifts with price action (or prove your own theories).
Content timing — Crypto influencers and newsletters can see when the community is most receptive before posting.
The possibilities are huge because the data is already cleaned, aggregated, and ready—no scraping headaches.
