The gap sort below finds the assets that are most divergent, which is largely the same list every day — an attention proxy that permanently outruns turnover is a property of the asset, not news about it. This ranks the assets whose gap moved most between two recorded cross-sections, 17 Sep, 02:46 UTC and 18 Sep, 03:16 UTC. Every asset is measured over the same interval.

Crossed a midline

The 10 assets whose move carried them into a different quadrant in this window. A crossing changes what the reading is called; it is still a description of a recorded interval.

A change is the difference between two measurements that were both recorded. It says what the gap did between those two moments and nothing about what it does next.

50 assets, sampled 18 Sep, 03:16 UTC. Each asset's two scores are its rank against the rest of the tracked universe at that instant — turnover in the 92nd percentile of the top 200 means exactly that, and nothing about what happens next. How this differs from the market chart.

Stablecoins are included. They carry enormous turnover and almost no narrative by definition, so they crowd the top of a gap-ranked table without telling you anything. Hide them.

A positive gap is money moving ahead of attention; a negative one is attention ahead of money. Both are readings of a recorded moment. Nothing on this screen is a recommendation.
