Category totals count every room Whatnot's category feed lists live, about 99% of listed rooms in a typical count, since rooms start and stop mid-count. A show tagged with more than one category is counted in each, so the rows don't add up to the market total up top.

These are PULSE’s own counts of the public Whatnot category feeds. They move a lot hour to hour, so read them as a snapshot of now.
