Methodology
NSI is a relative-momentum index built from five normalized sub-indicators.
NSI = 0.25·MCM + 0.20·VLA + 0.20·SMS + 0.15·DEV + 0.20·CFI
Volume / Liquidity Acceleration
24h aggregate volume ÷ market cap. A turnover spike usually precedes trend confirmation.
Social Mindshare Shift
Δ share-of-voice on Kaito + LunarCrush, 7d vs 30d. Tiered values in this build; pluggable API in roadmap.
Developer Activity
Active devs and commits via Electric Capital / Artemis. Tiered (high/med/low) — slow-moving signal.
Capital Inflows
ETF + stablecoin + bridge net inflows over 14 days. The "stickiness" check — real money on rails.
0–100 min-max within the universe
Each sub-indicator is rescaled relative to the 21-narrative universe. NSI ≥ 65 = Accumulate, 45–65 = Hold/Watch, < 45 = Fade.

About this index
The Narrative Strength Index is a research output of the CryptoStrategy project. It is intended for research and education only — it is not investment advice. Live data is sourced from CoinGecko. Mindshare, developer activity, and flow tiers are currently set heuristically; a roadmap item is to wire them to Kaito, Electric Capital, and DefiLlama / Farside respectively.
