Layer3 launched Signal, an onchain relevance index that measures real user attention and engagement rather than social media noise.
Key Features:
- Built on 3 million fee-paying users and 60 million credentials
- Tracks 200 million attributed transactions over three years
- Compares share of unique participants vs total activations
How It Works: Signal quantifies attention through verifiable onchain activity. High scores indicate strong engagement relative to output, while low scores suggest many activations with limited participation.
Current Users:
- Exchanges spot emerging projects
- Teams track momentum
- Communities prove traction
- Funds guide investments
Coming Soon: Premium version will include predictive insights, campaign benchmarks, and real-time analytics.
As Four Pillars researcher @IngsParty notes, Signal represents a cultural shift toward evaluating projects by actual usability and value rather than speculative hype.
"By attempting to quantify the intangible value of attention in a fair and meaningful way, Signal contributes to a cultural shift where projects are evaluated not by hype or speculative frenzy, but by actual usability and value." - @IngsParty, Researcher at Four Pillars
