This study aims to explore social media content associated with cryptocurrency marketing. We employ unsupervised Latent Dirichlet allocation topic modeling and sentiment analysis techniques to 98,716 tweets to examine Twitter (now known as X) content for subjects and sentiments related to cryptocurrency. Our findings reveal that cryptocurrency tweets fell into four categories, with 'cryptocurrency trading,' 'NFT airdrop,' 'cryptocurrency affiliate program,' and 'Dogecoin on social media' being the most popular. Furthermore, most of these topics exhibited positive sentiments. This study contributes theoretically by integrating cryptocurrency marketing into the diffusion of innovation paradigm. In addition, it offers strategic insights for digital marketers in identifying prevalent topics and sentiments related to cryptocurrency, enabling the tailoring of affiliate marketing communication strategies on social media.
