ANSEM volume jumps 4.7x in a day as social buzz stays muted

Trading volume for Solana-based memecoin ANSEM jumped 4.7-fold in a day while social media mentions showed little change, highlighting a clear gap between trading activity and market interest, according to on-chain analytics platform Santiment. ANSEM’s volume rose from about $9 million on Aug. 16 to about $44 million on Aug. 17. Despite the one-day surge, it was still only about 43% of the peak reached on July 8. Social media mentions were tallied at 67 on the same day. Santiment added that such a sharp rise in volume would typically be accompanied by stronger market attention, but this time social media activity did not keep pace with the increase in trading volume.
