Our Methodology
Full transparency into how our AI evaluates every cryptocurrency — from raw data ingestion to the final Buy Score.
How It Works
Every 2 hours, our pipeline pulls fresh market data from multiple sources, runs it through a suite of technical and fundamental indicators, then feeds the structured output to DeepSeek V3.1 — a state-of-the-art large language model with deep financial reasoning capabilities.
The model synthesises 50+ signals and produces a Buy Score (0–100) alongside a plain-language rationale for each asset. Scores above 70 represent a strong bullish signal; below 30 indicates elevated risk or a bearish outlook.
No single metric drives the score. The AI weighs all signals holistically, just as an experienced analyst would — but without emotion, fatigue, or conflict of interest.
1. Data Sources
Market Data
- ● Real-time OHLCV from top-tier exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken)
- ● 24h volume, market cap, circulating supply
- ● Derivatives data: funding rates, open interest, liquidations
- ● Order book depth and bid-ask spread metrics
On-Chain Metrics
- ● Active addresses and transaction count (7d / 30d)
- ● Exchange inflows / outflows (whale movements)
- ● NVT ratio (Network Value to Transactions)
- ● HODL waves and long-term holder supply changes
Social Sentiment
- ● Crypto Fear & Greed Index (daily)
- ● Reddit and Twitter/X mention volume trends
- ● Google Trends search interest signals
- ● Developer activity (GitHub commits, pull requests)
2. Analysis Framework
Technical Analysis
Price-action indicators reveal short-to-medium term momentum and trend strength. We compute these on multiple timeframes (4h, 1d, 1w) to reduce noise.
- RSI Relative Strength Index — identifies overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) conditions
- MACD Moving Average Convergence/Divergence — captures trend direction and momentum shifts
- BB Bollinger Bands — volatility-adjusted price envelopes highlighting breakout setups
- EMA Exponential Moving Averages (20/50/200) — trend confirmation and support/resistance
- Volume Volume profile analysis — confirms price moves and flags potential fake-outs
Fundamental Analysis
Fundamentals determine whether an asset deserves its price. We evaluate project health and network utility alongside pure price metrics.
- Market Cap Relative market cap rank and dominance — large-caps carry lower volatility risk
- Tokenomics Inflation rate, vesting schedules, and supply unlock events that could create sell pressure
- Utility Real-world adoption metrics: DeFi TVL, protocol revenue, unique active users
- Team / Dev GitHub activity, roadmap delivery history, and core-team credibility signals
- News Major partnership, regulatory, or protocol upgrade events in the past 7 days
3. AI Model Approach
DeepSeek V3.1
We use DeepSeek V3.1, a frontier-class LLM trained on a broad corpus that includes financial textbooks, market research reports, and crypto-native content.
Each analysis cycle, all 50+ processed indicators for every tracked asset are serialised into a structured prompt. The model is instructed to act as a senior quantitative analyst and output a JSON object containing the Buy Score and a 3–5 sentence rationale.
The same prompt template is applied to every asset, ensuring comparability across different coins and market conditions.
Why an LLM, not a traditional model?
Traditional ML models excel at pattern recognition in historical data, but struggle with contextual reasoning — e.g., "this positive on-chain signal is offset by an upcoming token unlock." DeepSeek can weigh conflicting signals the way a human analyst would.
Refresh Cadence
Analysis runs every 2 hours, 24/7. Crypto markets never sleep, and neither does our pipeline. Each page shows the timestamp of the most recent analysis run.
No Hallucination Guard-rails
The AI is only permitted to reference metrics present in its input. Speculation about future events not supported by data is filtered from the output before it reaches the UI.
4. Risk Assessment
Volatility Score
Realised volatility over the past 30 days is normalised and penalises the Buy Score for assets showing erratic price swings, even if other signals are bullish. High volatility amplifies both gains and losses.
Liquidity Risk
Thin order books and low daily volume make it hard to exit positions at fair prices. Assets with market cap below $100 M receive a liquidity penalty unless volume growth is exceptional.
Regulatory Risk
Assets facing active SEC scrutiny, delisting pressure, or geographic bans are flagged. Regulatory developments are monitored continuously and can cause a sudden score revision.
Concentration Risk
Projects where the top 10 wallets hold more than 50% of supply are considered high-risk due to potential whale manipulation and sudden large dumps.
Buy Score Reference
| Score Range | Signal | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| 80 – 100 | Strong Buy | Multiple high-confidence bullish signals, strong fundamentals, low risk flags. |
| 60 – 79 | Buy | Positive outlook with moderate confidence. Worth monitoring for entry points. |
| 40 – 59 | Neutral | Mixed signals. Market is uncertain. Higher caution advised. |
| 20 – 39 | Caution | Predominantly bearish signals or elevated risk. Avoid new positions. |
| 0 – 19 | Avoid | Strong downside signals, critical risk flags, or extreme market fear. |
