That is very interesting, but it does sound like you’re measuring engagement (or, less charitably, the effectiveness of the self-organizing distributed boiler room of patio11 fame) rather than, say, assets and earnings.

I’d call the latter “fundamentals”, if only because I don’t see why engagement would provide a price floor at e.g. 1000 $/BTC rather than at 10k $/BTC or 100 $/BTC?

While engagement as in just tweeting doesn't provide a price you can do an estimate by (number of fans) x (amount they'd like to have invested) / (number of coins) = (estimated price)

eg 20 million BTC investors want to have $10k in BTC, 20 mil coins available => the price should be $10k

obviously some guess work in there
