What Trending measures
Trending represents attention and activity, not only price gains. It is a relative internal ranking of public Silex listings, rather than a ranking of every Cronos token. Recent Silex votes through Community Points, unique Silex profile views, price movement and trading volume contribute.
Both upward and downward price movement can indicate that a token is trending. A rank is not a quality grade, safety score, price prediction or investment recommendation.
Which projects can appear?
Approved, publicly visible listings with a valid token identity can appear. Hidden, blocked, deleted and unapproved projects are excluded. Missing market-data intervals do not automatically remove a token. Each unavailable signal contributes nothing, while available votes, views and market activity still count. Low trading activity does not disqualify a listing.
Silex ranks up to ten public listings. When fewer than ten are available, all available listings can appear. Projects with equal activity keep a consistent order.
Ranking factors
Recent votes and unique profile views capture community attention. Price movement in either direction and trading volume capture market activity. Each signal is compared across the public Silex listings before contributing to the ranking, so large raw numbers do not automatically outweigh other signals.
Recent activity matters more than older activity. Silex prefers daily market data and can use shorter periods when needed. Volumes are adjusted for the length of the period. Repeated immediate profile refreshes do not count as separate attention.
Community leaderboard rank does not determine Trending rank. Permanent Poop, Fire, Rocket and Red Flag reactions do not affect Trending. Public results show relative rank and activity descriptions; individual voting and viewing records are private.
Can projects pay to trend?
No. Organic Silex Trending rankings cannot be purchased. Sponsorship, Verification, payments and badges do not improve the ranking.
Silex Watch and Trending are separate
Watch describes observed changes and warnings. Trending describes attention and activity. A project may trend while Watch reports a warning. Trending does not establish Contract Verification or Project Verification and is not a safety signal.
Top gainers and Trending now
Top gainers ranks the highest percentage price changes among public listings, including negative changes when markets fall. A token needs an observed price and percentage; volume is not required. The card uses one consistent period, shown in its heading row: daily performance first, then six-hour or one-hour performance when daily data is limited. Silex can calculate changes from stored price snapshots.
During an interruption, Silex keeps available last-known percentages and labels their update time. An unavailable percentage is shown as N/A, never invented as zero. Top gainers always remains a price-performance card; the separate Trending now card ranks attention and activity.
Refresh timing and privacy
Rankings refresh regularly in the background. Temporary gaps in market data do not erase community attention, and previous successful highlights can remain visible while updates resume. These signals are not real time.
Profile views use a first-party session identifier to limit repeated counts. Silex stores a separate anonymous hash for each token and the recent count time, without raw IP addresses in the view records. Old view records are removed regularly. Tracking failures do not prevent a profile from opening.
