Why Polkadot (DOT) is trending
Everything the data says about Polkadot today: where it ranks, which countries are looking, what the daily signal reads and how the hype-risk score is built.
Today is the first day Polkadot shows up in the global trending ranking. Just one national list carries it today, Vietnam. Over the last day it moved -2.3%, extending a weekly change of -10.8%. With $1.40B in market value and $79.4M traded in a day, turnover runs at 6%. The chart scores 0 out of 100 on the daily checks — a strong sell signal. The oscillator sits at 27, an oversold reading. The hype-risk score comes out at 15 of 100 (low), driven mainly by days on the trending list and 7-day price change.
The archive holds 33 days for this coin, with a high-water mark of rank 21. The 30-day change stands at -28.7%. Its market-cap rank is 58 — inside the top 100 by market value. The 50-day average sits +24.0% above the current price. The downward phase on the trend indicator has lasted 16 days so far. The three-month range puts it -35.4% off the top and +8.9% off the bottom. Elsewhere the interest has not shown up: 29 other lists, Romania and Russia included, leave it out.

Questions about Polkadot
Answered from today's data, regenerated every day
Why is Polkadot trending today?
Polkadot appears on one national trending list (Vietnam) and scores 2 out of 100 on the combined trend score, which puts it at rank 55 worldwide today. The score is built from its position in the CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap trending feeds, how many countries list it and whether Binance marks it as hot. It measures attention only — nothing in it reflects the price direction.
Is Polkadot a buy right now?
This site does not give recommendations. What the data shows: the daily technical model scores 0 out of 100 on 10 checks, which reads as strong sell, while the hype-risk score is 15/100 (low). Those two numbers answer different questions, and a high trending rank is not part of either.
How risky is Polkadot compared with other trending coins?
Its hype-risk score is 15 out of 100, a low reading. The largest contributors are days on the trending list (First day on the list) and 7-day price change. The score is six measures added together and it is recalculated every day, so it moves as the coin ages on the list.
What is the DOT price and how much has it moved?
Polkadot trades at $0.8150 at the last daily close, -2.3% over 24 hours and -10.8% over seven days, -28.7% over thirty. Prices on this site come from the daily close at 00:00 UTC and are not live quotes.
How long has Polkadot been trending?
Today is its first day in the data. Coins that last only one day are the most common case, and they are also where the hype-risk score is highest by design.
