Cracking the Code to Moon Farming - Descriptive Statistics of the 100 Top Posts

Hello Babies and Ladies,

[DISCLAIMER: if you are a baby, please learn to read first. This is not a quality statistical analysis, it's the result of me having fun with the RedditAPI and some Python. Also, everything refers to the Top 100 Posts of all time!]

one thing unites all the people in this community: Moon Farming. So I went out on an epic quest to find the recipe for the maximum amount of upvotes on your daily shit posts. In this post, I will present to you the result of an analysis of the top 100 posts of all time on r/CryptoCurrency.

The Data

I used the RedditAPI and Python to scrape the top 100 posts of all time. Next, I deleted polls and posts with a "MOD"-flair. That brings our dataset down to 91 remaining posts. 100 was the maximum amount I could scrape using the API. In the next step, I did some preprocessing by setting all Flairs to uppercase so that "COMEDY" and "Comedy" will be treated as the same. I checked whether the posts or titles contained external links and finally counted the words in the titles and posts.

Some Stats

Let's dive right into some descriptive statistics! First up: Upvotes

https://preview.redd.it/owx3n9t55ye71.png?width=3135&format=png&auto=webp&s=8a060b57a43638036966edd04420de4d7746f521

In this boxplot you can see that the top post of all time had around 53.000 upvotes. Apart from the other 5 outliers, the number of upvotes range from about 12.000 to 27.000. The median number of upvotes is roughly 17.000. You can also see that the data are slighty right-skewed.

We see a similar distribution for Text Lengths:

One madlad really put in some effort and cranked out 3600 words! Many of you will notice that there are posts with 0 words, that means there was only a title and maybe a link.

Titles are distributed pretty evenly with only a single outlier at 50 words. Nothing special here.

Next, let's check out the Flairs:

Trading was used 12 times, followed by Finance, Strategy, Comedy and Focussed Discussion.

I also counted the most common Nouns/Proper Nouns in both the titles and the texts:

Top 10 words in titles:

crypto 21 bitcoin 15 bank 10 coin 10 people 9 elon 7 market 7 cryptocurrency 6 sub 6 year 6

Top 10 words in texts:

coin 147 people 98 money 84 crypto 72 market 64 time 59 bitcoin 56 price 56 year 43 thing 36

Who woud have thought, people talk about crypto on this sub!

To conclude this section, let's see how many posts contained external links:

55 posts didn't have external links, 36 had.

So how do you get more upvotes and moons? Fear not mighty warriors, I have some more statistics! I grouped the data in relation to the upvotes and here are the results:

Not having an external link performs slightly better than having a link:

Average Upvotes Link 17068.58 No Link 18391.71

​

Talk about SCAMS for the maximum amount of that sweet karma:

Perspective was the worst performing Flair. This difference is actually quite interesting as both SCAM and PERSPECTIVE where only used two times each. I left out the other flairs at this point.

FLAIR Average Upvotes SCAM 26503 STRATEGY 22118 WARNING 21566.5 CLIENT 20816 FOCUSED-DISCUSSION 19787.57 PERSPECTIVE 14149

And finally, it doesn't really matter how long your title is

but try to keep your posts short (just like this one...):

Thanks for reading and staring at some charts!

TL;DR: Talk about scams and don't use many words
