public methodology

Method & limits.

How trend records are structured, what the numbers mean, and where operator judgment enters the process.

OPAL/METHOD
version: 1.0
publication: manual
01

Observation

The operator identifies a recurring format, phrase, behavior or subject across public social platforms. A single popular post is not enough.

02

Measurement

View and post counts are estimates recorded at a stated check time. Momentum describes change across the operator’s observation window.

03

Evidence

Each trend includes plain-language observations and, where available, public source links. Source quality and recency should remain visible.

04

Confirmation

A “confirmed” label means the operator believes the evidence supports a sustained trend. It is not an independent platform certification.

05

Solana asset matching

Only Solana tokens are considered. A token may be recorded when its subject clearly overlaps the documented trend; similar names alone are not sufficient evidence.

06

Solana transactions

Purchases are made on Solana and entered manually by the operator. OPAL does not autonomously control a wallet or execute transactions.

Publication standard

Every public record should be factual, timestamped, and supported by links where possible. Estimates should be identified as estimates. Nothing on this site is financial advice.
