Crypto news aggregator — 100+ configured sources, coin filters, archives.

The News Aggregator pulls from 100+ configured sources including CoinDesk, The Block, Decrypt, Cointelegraph, Bloomberg Crypto, DL News, The Defiant, Messari, Bankless, Glassnode, Federal Reserve, ECB, OpenAI, Anthropic Blog, BBC World, Al Jazeera, and more. The live list is published at /news/sources.

The RSS ingestion job runs every two hours and writes new rows after normalization, deduplication, and coin tagging. The public feed API caches populated responses for 5 minutes, and /news/feed.xml refreshes every 10 minutes from the latest indexed rows.

News deduplication detects when multiple sources are covering the same underlying story and keeps the highest-quality, most recent version in the feed. When CoinDesk, The Block, and Decrypt all publish articles about the same SEC ruling, the similarity pass reduces repeated headlines rather than showing every near-duplicate.

Sharpe normalizes incoming articles, compares similar titles and descriptions, assigns source quality context, and keeps the strongest canonical source link visible in the feed. This reduces repeated coverage while preserving direct access to the original publisher.

Yes. The news feed supports category filtering across Crypto, TradFi, Macro, Research, AI, and Geopolitics. Coin-specific hubs such as /news/coin/bitcoin and /news/coin/ethereum use coin tags, and the search box lets you narrow the visible feed to keywords like ETF, hack, SEC, or a protocol name.

The News Aggregator focuses on published articles from established crypto media outlets rather than social media posts. For narrative attention signals, Sharpe offers the dedicated Mindshare product, which tracks watchlists, capped Telegram reach, sentiment votes, and developer metrics across crypto narratives. The two products complement each other: News for verified reporting, Mindshare for attention rotation.

Yes. The News Aggregator is available free on Sharpe Terminal with no account required. The source universe, category filtering, coin hubs, archives, and deduplication are accessible immediately. News data is also available through Sharpe's REST API, MCP server, and CLI tool for programmatic access and integration into trading workflows.

Crypto news drives price via three channels: catalyst shock (immediate reprice on regulatory rulings, exchange hacks, or ETF approvals), narrative reinforcement (sustained flow of positive or negative stories shifts sentiment over days), and liquidity signals (major institutional announcements bring new capital). Negative news with volume confirmation typically produces sharper drawdowns than positive news produces rallies, because crypto markets are structurally long-biased. Deduplicated, timestamped news feeds help you distinguish the original catalyst from downstream commentary.

An exchange hack is an unauthorized breach of a centralized exchange's hot wallet or infrastructure, resulting in user funds being stolen. Historical examples include Mt. Gox (850K BTC, 2014), FTX's collapse (2022), and numerous smaller incidents. Market impact extends beyond the affected exchange — hacks often trigger broader risk-off moves, withdrawals from other exchanges (proof-of-reserves demand), and regulatory scrutiny. Major hacks have preceded 20-40% BTC drawdowns in multiple cycles.
