Have you ever wondered, what else (except crypto) crypto people talked about on Redd
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>What do people on this sub do on Reddit, other than hang out on here? I was curious, so I checked it out on <a href="https://subredditstats.com/subreddit-user-overlaps/cryptocurrency">subredditstats</a>. The results were a mix of predictable and interesting.</p> <p>Subredditstats provides you with a score for each sub, "the scores listed are "probability multipliers", so a score of 2 means that users of <strong>cryptocurrency</strong> are twice as likely to post and comment on that subreddit". So the higher the score, the more similar the user bases are. </p> <p>The top subs are, not very surprising, either specific coin subs (the top ones are <strong>nanocurrency</strong> (36.19), <strong>banano</strong> (35.11), <strong>cardano</strong> (33.10), <strong>vechain</strong> (32.75) and <strong>ethereum</strong> (31.70)) or other general crypto subs (like <strong>cryptocurrencies</strong> (35.86) and <strong>cryptomarkets</strong> (35.72)). The top 24 are all directly crypto related. I was personally surprised that <strong>ethtrader</strong> (29.07) was "only" at rank 8, I thought moon and donut farmers would overlap so much to make it even higher. <strong>fortnitebr</strong> (1.17) is way down the list, moons and bricks don't seem to overlap.</p> <p>Starting from #25, other investment and economy-subs come in, stuff like <strong>stockmarket</strong> (7.74), <strong>investing</strong> (6.59) and <strong>stocks</strong> (6.35). Interestingly, <strong>wallstreetbets</strong> (3.70) is somewhat high, but far from one of the most connected investment subs. The first sub that cannot directly be connected to crypto, investing, or the economy in general is <strong>poker</strong> (3.45) at #41. This surprised me, but I guess it's the "making money" aspect here as well. Similarly <strong>pokemontcg</strong> (Pokemon Trading Card Game, 2.22) comes in at #80 - as far as I know those cards are mostly collectibles that get traded for a lot of money nowadays?</p> <p>A few country-subreddits are in the top 100 as well, <strong>austria</strong> (2.60), <strong>thenetherlands</strong> (2.56), <strong>portugal</strong> (2.49), <strong>belgium</strong> (2.21) and <strong>northernireland</strong> (2.07). All western European, I guess they like crypto? Another topic that I wouldn't have expected to be featured this strongly are drugs and supplements, <strong>nootropics</strong> (2.62), <strong>supplements</strong> (2.58), <strong>steroids</strong> (2.56), <strong>mushroomgrowers</strong> (2.10) and <strong>dmt</strong> (2.07) are all solidly in the top 100 (yes, I had to look some of them up as well). Mostly performance-enhancing stuff.</p> <p>Finally, the stuff I was curious about and the reason I looked this up: which politics-related subs are on top? Well, my suspicions were correct, the top ones are <strong>goldandblack</strong> (<em>discussion of Anarcho-Capitalism and Libertarianism,</em> 2.85), <strong>anarcho_capitalism</strong> (2.53), <strong>collapse</strong> (<em>Discussion regarding the potential collapse of global civilization</em>, 2.49) and, of course (although further down the list than I would have thought), <strong>conspiracy</strong> (2.00). So a lot of unreflective 'politics bad' combined with conspiratory thinking. A very toxic combination that, however, explains a lot of the content on here.</p> <p>Those categories make up the vast majority of the top 100, the rest are a few tech-and-science-related subs and a bit of random stuff that wasn't all that interesting to me, but you can check out the full list above. The <em>least</em> connected subs, however, were somewhat interesting (values of 0.10 and less) - almost exclusively porn! I guess with all the chart porn you don't need those!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/mic_droo"> /u/mic_droo </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/sulvm5/have_you_ever_wondered_what_else_except_crypto/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/sulvm5/have_you_ever_wondered_what_else_except_crypto/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
