About This Data

  • Layer Index: NewsLayer's proprietary 0–100 market-mood index
  • DeFi Theme: a narrative signal inside the index's sentiment component
  • Aave Signal: entity-level directional sentiment from the same engine
  • Not a contribution figure or Layer Index score of the Aave protocol
The Layer Index blends NewsLayer headline sentiment, BTC & ETH market momentum and breaking-news stability, recomputed roughly every 30 minutes.
