A new app called Edgen is making waves in the cryptocurrency world by giving regular investors access to the same kind of powerful market analysis tools that were once only available to professional traders and hedge funds.
After a successful testing phase where it analyzed over a million pieces of data daily, Edgen has now opened its doors to everyone. Previously available only through invites, the platform is being called an “AI Super App” because it combines several powerful features in one place.
“We built Edgen to help traders make smarter decisions, faster,” explained Sean Tao, co-founder of Edgen. “When information is everywhere, what matters most is how fast you can turn it into conviction. That’s what Edgen unlocks.”
In today’s fast-moving crypto markets, having access to data isn’t enough – what matters is how quickly you can make sense of it all. Edgen aims to solve this problem by using artificial intelligence to cut through the noise and highlight what’s important.
The app works by combining three key types of information: what people are saying about cryptocurrencies on social media, what’s actually happening on the blockchain (on-chain analysis), and technical market patterns. It processes all this information through specialized AI systems that work together to provide clear insights.
“If Bloomberg Terminal were invented today for a generation raised on Discord, DeFi, and ChatGPT, it would look like Edgen,” Tao added, referring to the expensive professional trading terminals used by Wall Street professionals.
Edgen is now live marketing visual.
What makes Edgen different from other market analysis tools is its “Efficient Decision Guidance Model” (EDGM). Rather than using one large AI system, Edgen uses multiple specialized tools working together. When a user asks a question, the system figures out what they’re really looking for and pulls information from the most relevant sources.
The platform offers four main features: a search function that provides real-time information, a “Radar” that tracks market momentum, feeds with insights from other users, and a feature called “Aura” that measures the quality of information shared by community members.
Rewarding the informed users
Aura is particularly interesting because it rewards users who provide valuable insights. It’s not a cryptocurrency or token that can be traded, but rather a score that tracks how accurate and helpful a user’s contributions are. The higher your Aura score, the more respected your insights become within the community.
“Imagine spotting a sudden spike in a microcap token. Edgen Search gives you an instant TLDR of its utility, recent smart wallet buys, and who’s talking about it on Twitter, all in one click,” explained Tao.
The company has ambitious plans for the future, including a marketplace where developers can create and share their own AI tools built on top of Edgen’s system. This would further expand the platform’s capabilities and allow for more specialized analysis tools.
Edgen is backed by several prominent crypto investment firms, including Framework Ventures, North Island Ventures, and Hivemind Capital Partners. Its technical team includes former Wall Street quantitative trading experts and Web3 developers.
For everyday crypto investors who have felt overwhelmed by the complexity and speed of cryptocurrency markets, Edgen represents a significant step toward leveling the playing field with institutional investors. By combining artificial intelligence with community insights, the platform aims to make sophisticated market analysis accessible to everyone.
