Labs for Token Issuers

Optimizing data-driven marketing, PR, and go-to-market strategy.

We understand how data impacts markets, and we arm our token clients with the knowledge and tools that they need to capitalize on our information advantage.

Why Token Labs?

The Tie is the leading provider of crypto data to institutions. Nearly one hundred of the largest hedge funds in crypto trust our sentiment, news, market, and on-chain data to help them make more informed investment decisions.

Speaking with founders of leading protocols, we realized that there was an even bigger opportunity for issuers. Reverse engineer the same data that cryptos biggest funds are using to trade, to help token issuers make more informed data-driven decisions.

Our team of data scientists and analysts understand what drives market performance. We use that data to help systematic hedge funds improve the win rate of their strategies. With Labs, our token clients have the opportunity to work hands-on and ask questions to our quantitative team — ensuring educated data-driven decisionmaking across key marketing, PR, and GTM strategic initiatives.

Building Targeted Ad Campaigns in the UK

Request:

Approach:

  • Using our Twitter database, we divided tweets mentioning major cryptocurrencies by region and subregions.
  • For each region/subregion, we determine the number of tweets with positive, neutral, or negative sentiment.
  • Summarize the information over time by region/subregion.

Identifying the Optimal Publication for a Partnership Announcement

Approach:

  • Use NLP to tag announcement types.
  • Measure change in price, volume, etc. post announcement.
  • Over long-term averaging, quantify the most impactful source.

Result:
  • Medium and Cointelegraph are the most popular places to make partnership announcements - and they have good returns. Coindesk is less popular but has very positive returns on average.
  • Many publications have no influence (or negative), so they are not worth your time or money.
