How to read it
Bathymark treats this as one instrument on a larger wall. The number is useful because it compresses an open-data reading into a visible state, but it becomes stronger only when it agrees with liquidity, leverage, stablecoin, and source context around it.
What it cannot mean
It cannot prove where capital will move next. Attention can lead price, lag price, or simply make noise.
