Crypto research firm Delphi Digital said in a December X post that the platform’s social features may be helping attract users by making trading feel “more like scrolling a feed than sitting at a terminal.”

“In November, @fomo_family generated more monthly fees than Moonshot, despite being a younger product with lower fees,” Delphi Digital wrote.
