Database of twitter influencers in cryptocurrency (2021–2023) with sentiments

The dataset created in this research concerns the opinions of more than 52 influencers (persons or companies) regarding eight cryptocurrencies. This dataset was collected through the Apify Twitter API for eight months, from February 2021 to June 2023. This dataset contains five Excel files and tweets, compound score, importance coefficient of each tweet, sentiment polarity, and historical prices of four cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance, and other information. These tweets cover the opinions of 52 influencers on more than 300 cryptocurrencies, although most comments are related to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Binance. For this reason, three Excel files containing the historical prices of polarity and compound sentiment related to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Binance cryptocurrencies have been placed separately in the dataset. The polarity of sentiment in these Excel shows the maximum number of polarities by applying the importance coefficient, which determines the dominant polarity of sentiment related to a particular day for the cryptocurrency.
