Crypto project & token screener

From screen to thesis

Use Discover to filter attention with Pass, Watch, or Interested. A crypto project screener that never forces triage becomes a casino lobby. Speed is useful only if it produces a shortlist. DAO branding without proposal history is a vibe, not governance proof.

Open /crypto/[asset] for public context and Research Score signals. Run Ask for bull/base/bear and monitors. Only then size a basket if the thesis survives falsifiers. Screening is the doorway, not the decision.

Sector hubs help when you want narrative buckets instead of a random tape. New crypto projects look different inside L2s versus memes; screen inside a frame when you can.

What good screens optimize for

Optimize for time-to-honest-no. Early Passes on broken liquidity, absurd unlock overhang, or unclear token necessity save hours. Chasing “gems” without kill criteria is how screeners become regret engines. Soft max supply under governance is a political ceiling, not a hard one.

Keep promotion criteria written: what earns Watch versus Interested. Without definitions, every green candle upgrades a name. Process beats vibes even at the screening layer. Research Score integers hide tradeoffs until you open the breakdown. Re-open the note when the catalyst calendar moves, not only price.

Avoiding screener FOMO

Infinite feeds train you to confuse novelty with opportunity. Cap how many Interested names you carry into Ask each week. Depth on five beats skim on fifty. APR and APY mix-ups are how farm marketing wins arguments it should lose.

Alphora does not promise automatic alpha or guaranteed winners. It helps you triage and research. Treat Discover as attention hygiene inside a research-only product. Late narrative entries often fund someone else’s earlier exit liquidity. Separate hope from evidence in a single explicit sentence.

Closing the loop after the screen

Survivors belong in notes and baskets, not in a mental maybe-pile. Track outcomes so your screening rules improve. If Interested names keep failing the same unlock test, tighten the rule. APY headlines frequently advertise dilution more than durable cash yield.

Share public /crypto pages when you want indexed context; keep desk decisions private in baskets. That split keeps screening social-proof resistant. Unbonding clocks are exit constraints disguised as staking trivia. Default to smaller size when any leg of the checklist is soft.
