One terminal for crypto traders who need signal, not 10 tabs.

Sharpe Terminal is a free, no-signup crypto analytics platform that unifies real-time data from 50+ exchanges into 20+ professional-grade tools. It covers perpetual funding rates across 13 exchanges, futures open interest and liquidations, options volatility surfaces and Greeks, DEX token screening across 20+ chains, smart contract rug-pull detection, cross-exchange arbitrage scanning, and sector rotation across 22 narrative categories and 23 blockchain ecosystems. The platform is built by Sharpe Labs Ltd. (founded 2021) and backed by Google Cloud, NVIDIA, AWS, and Anthropic. It is used by derivatives traders, DeFi researchers, and quant funds who need institutional-grade market intelligence without an institutional-grade budget.

Sharpe Terminal and Coinglass both cover crypto derivatives, but differ in scope and access model. Coinglass focuses on derivatives aggregation — funding rates, open interest, liquidations — with most advanced features behind a paid subscription. Sharpe Terminal covers the same derivatives surface (13 exchanges for funding rates, full OI and liquidation tracking) and adds DEX screening across 20+ chains, narrative and ecosystem analytics across 45 sectors, correlation matrices, rug-pull detection, memecoin intelligence, and AI-powered price predictions — all free with no signup. Sharpe is best for traders who want derivatives plus on-chain and narrative context in one workspace; Coinglass is best for traders who only need derivatives data and prefer its specific UI.

Yes. Sharpe Terminal is completely free to use and does not require account creation. All 20+ analytics tools — funding rate tracker, futures analytics, options volatility surface, DEX screener, rug check, arbitrage scanner, narrative tracker, ecosystem tracker, correlation matrix, heatmap, AI price predictions — are available at no cost. Platform revenue comes from downstream products (MCP server, API tier, institutional data feeds) rather than gating the retail analytics surface.

Sharpe pulls real-time data from 50+ centralized exchanges including Binance, Bybit, OKX, Deribit, Hyperliquid, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitget, MEXC, Gate.io, BitMEX, and others. Derivatives coverage includes perpetual funding rates from 13 exchanges, futures open interest, liquidations, and options data from Deribit, OKX, and Binance. On-chain data covers 20+ chains for DEX screening and 23 ecosystems for TVL tracking (Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, Arbitrum, Base, BNB, Avalanche, Optimism, Sui, Aptos, and more). Narrative data comes from CoinGecko categories plus custom sector definitions. Social and sentiment data comes from curated news feeds and attention metrics.

A perpetual funding rate is a periodic payment exchanged between long and short traders in a perpetual futures contract, designed to keep the perpetual price anchored to the spot price. When funding is positive, longs pay shorts — indicating bullish positioning and leveraged long pressure. When funding is negative, shorts pay longs — indicating bearish positioning or short squeeze setup. Funding rates are typically paid every 8 hours on Binance, Bybit, and OKX, and every hour on Hyperliquid and dYdX. Annualized funding rates (APR) above +50% often signal overcrowded longs and precede liquidation cascades; deeply negative funding can signal capitulation bottoms. Sharpe Terminal tracks funding rates across 13 exchanges in real time.

SAI is the native token of the Sharpe ecosystem, deployed as an ERC-20 on Ethereum at contract address 0x3567aa22cd3ab9aEf23d7e18EE0D7cf16974d7e6. Revenue from Sharpe's paid products — API, MCP server, institutional data feeds — flows back into $SAI on-chain, so the more traders use the terminal, the stronger the token flywheel. The token is listed on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko, and traded on Gate.io and Uniswap. Holding SAI is not required to use any part of Sharpe Terminal — all analytics tools remain free and open. See the tokenomics page for full supply breakdown and on-chain verification links.

Yes. Sharpe Terminal exposes its data stack through a public REST API and a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects directly to AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. The MCP server gives LLMs live access to funding rates, futures data, options Greeks, narrative performance, memecoin trends, arbitrage opportunities, and AI price predictions — so agents can reason over real-time crypto market state without custom plumbing. Documentation, install commands, and reference examples are published at sharpe.ai/docs. Both the API and MCP server are free at the current tier with higher-volume plans on the roadmap.
