Signals
Your Daily Market Intelligence Hub — Crypto, Finance, Economics and NFTs
CoinHours Signals publishes original crypto market analysis covering Bitcoin price action, on-chain data, macro-crypto correlations, DeFi developments, NFT market activity, and regulatory news. Articles are anchored to specific market data — Fear & Greed readings, ETF flows, exchange reserves, halving cycle position — and are published at most twice per Sydney calendar day.
Use the category filters to focus on the topics most relevant to your strategy. Crypto & Macro covers Bitcoin and major altcoin moves alongside Federal Reserve policy, dollar strength, and bond market signals. Finance & Economics tracks the wider markets that influence crypto valuations. NFTs & Meme Coins follows speculative on-chain culture, while DOGE & Doginals isolates Dogecoin ecosystem coverage including the Doginal Dogs collection. For longer-form reference material, pair Signals with the Learn encyclopedia.
