TechFlow news, July 15, according to CoinDesk, crypto communications company Chainstory released a research report stating that among the top 1000 crypto projects ranked by CoinGecko, only 67 have Wikipedia entries, and well-known projects such as Hyperliquid and Sui are not included. Since AI tools like ChatGPT have 7.8% of citation links pointing to Wikipedia (far higher than Reddit's 1.8% and Forbes' 1.1%), the lack of Wikipedia content is having a substantial impact on AI's understanding of the crypto industry.
The report also pointed out that Wikipedia lists crypto vertical media (including CoinDesk) as "generally unreliable" sources, while mainstream media are recognized but rarely report in-depth on DeFi sub-sectors, further exacerbating the information gap. Chainstory concluded, "The crypto industry barely exists on Wikipedia."
