The Problem

Bloomberg charges $24,000/year.
And it doesn't even speak crypto.

The Bloomberg Terminal is a legacy product built for traditional finance. Every attempt to use it for digital assets hits a wall.

⛔
No On-Chain Data
MVRV, NVT, exchange flows, hash rate — Bloomberg has none of it.
⛔
No ISO 20022
SWIFT's new messaging standard is reshaping settlement. Bloomberg is silent.
⛔
No DeFi Analytics
TVL, protocol yields, liquidity pools — invisible to Bloomberg.
⛔
No Whale Tracking
$10M+ on-chain movements that move markets — not tracked.
⛔
No AI Synthesis
Raw data dumps. No intelligence layer. No natural-language querying.
💀
$24,000/Year
Minimum. Per seat. For data that's missing half the picture.

Competitive Landscape

No one else has built this full stack.

Competitors either cost too much, cover too little, or lack the AI synthesis layer.

Why Now

Every macro signal is converging.

2024–2026 is the inflection point for institutional crypto adoption. We're already built.

SWIFT ISO 20022 Migration Complete
The global banking messaging standard has migrated. XRP, XLM, HBAR, QNT, and ADA are officially compliant. Trillions in cross-border payments now speak the same language as crypto.
Spot Bitcoin & Ethereum ETFs Approved
BlackRock, Fidelity, and 10+ asset managers now offer spot crypto ETFs. Institutional capital is flowing in at record pace. ETF flow tracking is now essential infrastructure.
Regulatory Clarity Emerging
GENIUS Act moving through Congress. EU MiCA framework live. SEC crypto task force active. For the first time, the rules of the game are being written — and we track every move.
AI-Native Infrastructure Ready
LLM APIs, real-time web search (Perplexity Sonar), and vector databases make it possible to build a terminal that synthesizes 89 sources in seconds. This wasn't possible 2 years ago.
Crypto Market Cap at ATH
$3.8T+ market cap. 500M+ global users. The asset class has arrived. Demand for professional-grade tooling has never been higher — yet the tooling remains fragmented.
Bloomberg Has Not Responded
Despite the $3.8T crypto market, Bloomberg has made no meaningful product investment in on-chain data, DeFi analytics, or AI synthesis. The window is open.
