🔮 Crypto Alpha Feed

Automated crypto intelligence that surfaces airdrop opportunities, protocol launches, and alpha signals — before they go mainstream.

The best crypto opportunities get crowded fast. By the time airdrops hit Twitter, the early allocations are gone. Crypto Alpha Feed monitors project blogs, RSS feeds, and on-chain data to catch alpha signals early — then delivers them to Telegram so you can act fast.

How It Works

1. Monitors 12+ project blogs, RSS feeds, and airdrop aggregators
2. Detects airdrop announcements, protocol launches, and token signals
3. Scores each signal by relevance and freshness
4. Formats and delivers to Telegram instantly
5. Deduplicates so you never see the same signal twice

What It Tracks

Blog & RSS Monitoring

• Project blogs — Ether.fi, EigenLayer, Uniswap, Hyperliquid, zkSync, and more
• Airdrop aggregators — Airdrops.io, DeFiLlama airdrop candidates
• Mirror blogs — Protocol announcements on Mirror.xyz

On-Chain Signals

• New token deployments — Fresh contract deployments on major chains
• Protocol launches — TVL appearing on new protocols
• Airdrop patterns — High TVL + no token = likely future airdrop

Monitored Sources

Source	Type	Signal
Ether.fi	Blog RSS	Restaking updates, airdrop rounds
EigenLayer	Blog RSS	AVS launches, point programs
Uniswap	Blog RSS	Governance, fee switches, v4 hooks
Hyperliquid	Mirror	Trading incentives, token updates
zkSync	Mirror	Ecosystem grants, airdrop phases
Airdrops.io	RSS	Curated airdrop listings
DeFiLlama	API	Tokenless high-TVL protocols

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• npm
• A Telegram bot token (for delivery) — create one via @BotFather

Quick Start

npm install
cp config.example.json config.json
# Edit config.json with your monitored sources and Telegram settings

# Single run
node feed.js | node format.js
