Market brief

A daily and a weekly newsletter composed from the same stored rows as the rest of Blocktronics: the headline numbers, the biggest movers, the strongest fresh signals, each chain and one ecosystem, on the web, by email and as a feed

Where it is

  • /brief is the newest settled day, /brief/weekly the seven days to it. /brief/2026-10-11 and /brief/weekly/2026-10-11 open earlier ones
  • /brief/feed.json is a JSON Feed 1.1 of recent briefs with each figure as data
  • /brief/email?period=daily shows the email exactly as it is sent (&format=text for the text part, &format=json with the subject and headers)

What's in it

  • Headline numbers
  • Biggest movers
  • Strongest fresh signals
  • By chain
  • Ecosystem spotlight
  • On your watchlist

Net DEX flow, holder counts and MVRV come from each token's daily series, so a brief covers exactly its days. Market cap, 30-day smart money, grades and signals exist only as of the snapshot, so they appear on the brief for the newest settled day; an earlier day is rebuilt from the daily series and says what it leaves out. Holder growth ranks tokens with 100 or more holders, token by token; the brief doesn't sum holder counts across tokens. Signals are the 6 strongest fresh ones, one per token, as on the drafts desk

Each section opens with a sentence or two in plain words, such as "More money came in than went out across the tokens we track" or "the typical token's holders are sitting at about half what they paid", and a picture drawn from the brief's own figures: buying against selling as one bar, market cap by chain as a strip, the grade mix, MVRV against its break-even, the movers as bars, and the chains side by side on one scale. MVRV, smart money and the grade are each explained once, beside their figure. The page and the email use the same words

Words only restate numbers
Every sentence is a fixed template filled with figures the brief computed, and passes the same wording guard as the marketing drafts: no advice, no hype, no number that wasn't computed. Settled days only

By email

Pick daily or weekly on the brief or on your account, with the sections and chains you want. Without an account, an email and a 6-digit code subscribe you. Daily briefs go out in the morning (07:00 UTC unless the host sets another hour), weekly ones on Mondays; each subscription gets each period once

Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe link (no sign-in, and Undo on the page it opens), a preferences link, "View in browser", and the List-Unsubscribe and List-Unsubscribe-Post headers (RFC 8058), so mail apps can offer their own unsubscribe button

Hosted version only
Email needs the hosted version: a database for subscriptions and a mail server. The public preview of this site has neither, so its subscribe box explains that and the brief stays on the web and in the feed
