Latest news about Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies. Your daily crypto news habit.

Coindesk is building the most influential, trusted media platform for a global community engaged in the transformation of the financial system and the emerging crypto economy. CoinDesk is an integrated platform for news, events, data & research for the next generation of investing and the future of money.
In its continuous quest to be at the forefront of news and data in the crypto markets, CoinDesk has revamped its price pages to offer users a more comprehensive experience when trying to understand the behavior of crypto assets.
IntoTheBlock is proud to have been chosen by CoinDesk to provide a new set of indicators to complement CoinDesk’s data.
When visiting any price page, users will now have access to market, onchain and social metrics provided by IntoTheBlock, including:
Number of Transactions: provides the number of onchain transactions of a crypto asset for a given time period, thus giving a good indication of usage and trading activity.
Price Performance vs Indices: compares the price returns of BTC and ETH versus traditional financial indices such as the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, the US Dollar Index and also to the price performance of gold.
Average Time Token is Held: calculates the average holding period for a crypto-asset. This is calculated by averaging all addresses’ holding times for addresses before they transfer out (or sell) the asset. Longer holding periods may be indicators of long-term belief in the crypto asset.
Twitter Sentiment: uses IntoTheBlock’s proprietary classification machine learning algorithm to infer the connotation of messages discussing a particular crypto-asset and its ticker.
Search Trends: shows the relative rank of searches performed by Google users globally for a particular crypto-asset.
Users that want to dive deeper into a crypto asset’s behavior can click on any of the “Powered by IntoTheBlock” buttons in the page and will be redirect to the IntoTheBlock Platform, where they will have access to a portfolio of over 120 intelligent signals about traditional crypto assets, specific markets such as DeFi, and event price prediction models.
At IntoTheBlock, we are excited and humbled about this new release that enables us to expand our reach to CoinDesk’s vast audience. We look forward to hearing about your experience with CoinDesk and IntoTheBlock.
