What we publish
Six things, each with a job. Everything below is free to read, carries no advertising, and cannot be paid into.
A short paper, not a firehose
A few stories a day rather than everything five publishers filed. Each one opens here, carries the section it belongs to, and names the companies and tokens it is actually about.
Front page →1,921 assets, priced live
Price, 24-hour and seven-day moves, supply, market cap and every story we hold that names the asset. Sortable by gainers, losers, volume and recency, and searchable by name or ticker.
Browse coins →Rated on what you cannot check alone
Our own score out of ten for liquidity depth, custody practice and disclosure quality, with custody weighted double. Alongside it, 500 venues tracked on real volume and independent trust scores.
Exchange ratings →Written to be read once
Six sections, from first principles to wallet security and how to avoid scams. No affiliate links, nothing to sell, and the scam guides name the specific patterns rather than telling you to be careful.
The primer →Across everything on file
Headlines, standfirsts, the full text of our own pieces, and the company and token tags attached to them. A search for a company name finds the coverage even when the headline does not spell it out.
Search the archive →A reading list that stays yours
Bookmark anything and it waits for you. Kept in your own browser rather than in an account, so there is nothing to sign up for and nothing for us to hold.
Your saved stories →Something you need that is not here?
Tell us what you were looking for and could not find. Write to info@thewatchpaper.com. We would rather add one thing readers actually asked for than ten nobody wanted.
