I think it is applicable. We do this in other areas too, namely metadata. This is technically just a set of bytes but we transform it into columns for usability. We already have a supports table too so it should not be too difficult if this is what we end up doing.

@lyoshenka I just noticed this, just to be clear trending will instead happen in the wallet server?
yes
Take the same logic being used to calculate view trending in our internal logic (Z scores, etc.) and apply it to LBC received by addresses / claims.
This allows for the detection of trending channels and claims on a support/tip/payment basis.
I think it is debatable that this is appropriate to add to chainquery since it is not pure blockchain data. Let's discuss whether this is appropriate either on the ticket or in chat.
