Here are 5 lesser-known cryptocurrency research tools that will help you find Alpha before everyone else.
1. Artemis - Monitoring L1 Data
Artemis allows you to monitor:
Developer activity on large chains;
How many addresses interact with the DApp?
How much the number of daily transactions on the chain changes over time;
I used Artemis to discover which chains are most popular among developers.
2. CoinMarketCal - Cryptocurrency Calendar
On CoinMarketCal you can find some of the biggest happenings in crypto. From conferences and AMAs to new product launches, we have it all.
You can also sort all these events by date and importance.
3.Scope Protocol - Monitoring Whale Wallets
The best free alternative to Nansen. With Scope, you can see what whales and VCs are doing in real time.
For those interested in monitoring hacker activity, Scope also offers a dashboard.
4. Cryptowatch
This is a great tool for DeFi farmers. I use it frequently to determine the correlation between 2 tokens.
When you provide liquidity, impermanent loss depends on how much the price of the asset you deposit changes.
High correlation -> lower impermanent loss.
5. Exponential DeFi
An investment platform that simplifies the process of finding income opportunities.
There are already a lot of apps that do this, but Exponential also provides a risk assessment for each opportunity. More importantly, it shows where the benefits will come from.
