Cryptocurrency sentiments and data APIs – feedback welcome
- verdverm 8y agoHmm, everything has negative sentiment for all time periods (only goes to one year)... Seems about right. Is the previous year available? Have the algos overfit for negativity?
- verdverm 8y agoGenerally seems that HN has become less interested / more skeptical of the cryptocurrency ecosystem. We still like the former crypto though!
- polymorpher 8y agoThat's true, unfortunately :) But there are still a lot of people consider bad market as an opportunity to build something useful / to experiment with their investment strategies.
- polymorpher 8y agoNot yet. We haven't collected historical discussion data (prior to June 2018 for popular coins). But it's something I planned to do in the next few months. I doubt the algorithm would overfit for negativity. The supervised portion is trained on unrelated datasets. When we collect historical data (e.g. late 2017), or when the market recovers, I can verify.
