Who Just Joined FOMO? Tracking New Traders as They Arrive

FOMO pushes a notification when a trader with a notable following joins the platform. That new-user stream is a growth and talent signal available through the API.

Every platform has a moment before it is obvious. One of the cleaner ways to read where FOMO is going is to watch who is arriving. When a trader with a notable following joins, FOMO surfaces it, and that stream of arrivals is a signal in two directions at once.

Why new arrivals matter

  • Talent. A trader who was successful elsewhere showing up on FOMO is worth tracking from day one, before they have a track record on the platform.
  • Momentum. A cluster of notable accounts joining in a short window says something about where attention is flowing.
  • Growth. The rate of arrivals is a read on the platform itself, useful whether you are trading on it or building around it.

How to pull it

The new-user events come through the alert and notification stream. Each one names the trader who joined.

curl "https://api.fomoapi.io/v2/notifications?notificationType=USER_WITH_SMART_FOLLOWING_JOINED"

From there you can resolve any of them straight to their wallets and, where available, their linked social account:

curl https://api.fomoapi.io/v2/users/{handle}

So a new arrival is not just a name in a feed. Within one more call it is a resolved identity you can start tracking immediately.
