Pricing · Comparison
The paid alternative.
We're not claiming we replace Bloomberg or TradingView wholesale. We cover the crypto-data layers most traders actually need, plus things you'd otherwise build yourself. Here's what each service covers and what it misses.
The closest paid stack
These five services together cost $3,538/mo — what someone might assemble to cover similar ground. Even so, gaps remain (see below).
| Service | Cost | What it covers | What it doesn't |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bloomberg Terminal | $2,400/mo | Macro news, equities, FX, fixed income, mainstream financial data | On-chain whale flows, token unlock calendar, per-coin confluence scoring, per-ticker crypto news NLP |
| Glassnode Professional | $999/mo | On-chain metrics: MVRV, NUPL, exchange flows, miner data, plus a derivatives suite (funding, OI) | Editorial news & NLP sentiment, AI market briefs, per-coin confluence scoring, score-threshold alerts, regional sentiment map |
| Nansen Pro | $49/mo | Smart-money wallet labels, NFT flows, DEX patterns, on-chain perp positions, unlock schedules | Editorial news & NLP sentiment, AI market briefs, aggregated CEX funding/OI/long-short, per-coin confluence scoring, regional sentiment |
| Whale Alert (Personal) | $30/mo | Whale transaction alerts on a handful of chains | News, derivatives, on-chain analytics, unlocks, ChatGPT briefs |
| TradingView Premium | $60/mo | Charts, indicators, drawing tools, multi-chart layouts | Every data layer above (whales, funding, OI, news, etc.) — it's a charting tool |
| Total | $3,538/mo | … and still missing what's below. | |
What the stack still misses — and what it'd cost to fill it
Even after the $3,538/mo stack, you'd still need to add these for full parity on the data layer alone.
| Service | Cost | Why you need it | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CryptoRank Pro | ~$70/mo | Token unlock calendar with vesting schedules. The dedicated trackers (CryptoRank, Tokenomist) gate the full calendar and alerts behind Pro tiers — another standalone subscription on top of your charting and on-chain stack. | |
| OpenAI API budget | $50–200/mo | To synthesise a 6-hourly market brief from your data. The brief CWN generates uses ~$60/mo at our usage, and briefing off your own dashboard's data is something you'd wire up yourself. | |
| CryptoPanic Pro | ~$25/mo | Crypto-only news index. But you'd still need to write the NLP scoring + regional tagging layer yourself. | |
| RSS aggregator + custom NLP | build cost/mo | To replicate CWN's editorial feed coverage with sentiment scoring and dedup. News indexes (CryptoPanic etc.) exist; bundling this feed set with the NLP scoring and regional dedup is mostly engineering time, not subscription cost. | |
What you'd have to build yourself
Replicating these means custom engineering rather than another subscription.
Signal Confluence scoring
10 dimensions collapsed into one number per coin every few minutes. Glassnode publishes the individual metrics; the cross-input scoring is the part you'd write yourself.
Push alerts on score thresholds
Push notifications when a coin's confluence score crosses your threshold (default 75, tunable 0-100) or its trend flips. TradingView alerts on custom indicators; Whale Alert sends transactions, not score events.
Regional news threat map
Country-level sentiment with macro/regulatory event tagging, built on top of our NLP layer.
Multi-exchange reserve tracking (16 CEXs)
Glassnode covers a subset; CWN's view via DefiLlama spans 16 venues including Bitget, Crypto.com, MEXC, BingX, Robinhood. Replicating this means querying DefiLlama directly and writing the aggregation logic.
Direct stack
$3,538/mo
Plus $145–295/mo in add-ons for unlock data, AI synthesis, NLP-scored news. Plus engineering time for things you can't buy.
CryptoWorld News
£14.99/mo
The crypto data layers above, in one dashboard, plus confluence scoring, score-cross alerts and the regional news map.
