Chainlink and Bittensor Lock Horns in the Great DePIN Popularity Contest

$LINK$TAO$ICP$RENDER$ZBCN$ROSE$ATH$FIL$SC$EGLD

LunarCrush has crowned the DePIN kings of social media, and the results are spicy. Chainlink ($LINK) grabs the top spot with 7.5K engaged posts and 2.9M interactions, proving its community doesn’t sleep. Hot on its heels is Bittensor ($TAO) in second place, with 7.3K engaged posts and 608.6K interactions. That razor-thin 0.2K difference in posts shows the battle for social dominance is still anyone’s game, and the degen energy is palpable.

Internet Computer ($ICP) and Render ($RENDER) round out the top four, but the gap is starting to look like a canyon. $ICP claims third with 4.0K engaged posts and 862.8K interactions, while $RENDER follows in fourth with 2.3K engaged posts and 219.2K interactions. The difference is a notable 1.7K in posts and a massive 643.6K in interactions, which is roughly the digital equivalent of a quiet coffee shop versus a screaming concert.

Further down the list, Zebec Network ($ZBCN) and Oasis ($ROSE) are separated by a hair's breadth, proving that in crypto, proximity is everything. $ZBCN takes fifth with 1.5K engaged posts and 214.3K interactions, just 0.1K ahead of $ROSE in sixth, which has 1.4K engaged posts and 202.2K interactions. This isn't a race; it's a photo finish where the difference is smaller than a fractional satoshi.

Aethir ($ATH) and Filecoin ($FIL) show a different dynamic entirely, like two traders with the same entry price but wildly different P&Ls. They're close in engaged posts—1.1K vs. 843—separated by just 257, which is practically a rounding error. But their interaction counts tell a different story: $ATH has 63.9K, while $FIL leads with 127.8K, doubling its rival with the kind of effortless swagger that comes from being an established giant.

Finally, the list closes with Siacoin ($SC) in ninth place (852 engaged posts, 37.9K interactions) and MultiversX ($EGLD) in tenth (746 engaged posts, 66.0K interactions). It’s a reminder that even at the bottom of the top ten, the numbers are still in the thousands, and the engagement is real—just not as loud as the giants at the top.
