Imho twitter (no i am not calling it x), is a bubble that's riddled with trolls and bots now. It's mostly an echo chamber and poorly reflects on any large trends, other then their own they choose to promote.

Also when it comes to your original question, why it would make sense to make gambling platform for this, when you can literally just buy those tokens that you predicted to be trending and get winnings directly without casinos getting a cut from it?

But changes of winning in both cases are slim to none. Even if you could predict the next trend before it starts, you would need to choose the right tokens that are participating in it. And that's not an easy task. There's a reason why some people are calliing crypto trading gambling.
