This week, Santiment founder Maksim tackled that concern head-on, using hard data rather than hype to evaluate market conditions.<\/p>\n

In a detailed analysis, Maksim laid out a clear, objective framework built on social sentiment, on-chain metrics, and DeFi activity. His approach avoids emotional reactions, favoring actionable signals that can help traders navigate uncertain territory.<\/p>\n

One of the first red flags Maksim identifies<\/a><\/strong> is a surge in mentions of \u201calt season.\u201d When this term makes up more than 1% of crypto-related discussions, it usually signals that retail euphoria is peaking. He also pointed to a common pattern called \u201csocial divergence,\u201d where prices rise while social interest fades\u2014often a signal that the excitement is drying up.<\/p>\n

More advanced insights came from cross-platform analysis: while Twitter may show fading interest, a sudden spike in 4chan chatter typically precedes market climaxes. According to Maksim, the combination of both is a high-conviction top signal.<\/p>\n

He also highlighted rising DeFi borrowing activity, particularly the jump in USDC yields on Compound to 11%. Historically, yields nearing 20% have marked periods of speculative excess and market reversals.<\/p>\n
