Signal strength

The bars show how much of a story you could check yourself. More bars, more fact. Fewer bars, more argument and guesswork.

The Signal rule

Check where a claim comes from before you repeat it.

Supply facts trace to the source code and the public ledger. Estimates trace to named firms (Chainalysis, Glassnode, CoinMetrics). Price calls from social posts, YouTube thumbnails with shocked faces, or other AIs get the guess label. Every time.
