Coverage is not complete yet; additional sources could refine the WHY chain.
A clear starting point for this market move: price, direction, explanation, and data quality in one view.
WHYCRYPTO maps every explanation into the same inspectable building blocks. That makes WHYs comparable, historically useful, and easier to share.
The first observable trigger such as news, ETF flows, macro data, liquidations, or on-chain evidence.
Signals like volume, social attention, funding, liquidity, or market sentiment that make the move stronger.
Data such as price expansion, volume confirmation, trend breaks, or market breadth that supports the sequence.
A quality indicator for timing, source diversity, and chain logic — not a direction promise.
The sequence shows whether cause, amplifier, and confirmation plausibly line up over time.
If external sources are missing, the explanation is labeled as market-data correlation instead of showing empty source states.
The WHY Score evaluates how specific, source-backed, and logically inspectable this explanation is. It is not a trading signal or a price forecast.

Confidence is medium due to usable source quality, clear cause, observable confirmation.
Weighted from specificity, source quality, cause strength, amplifier/confirmation clarity, freshness, readability, evidence density, and non-generic language.
This is how WHYCRYPTO structures the move: from the first trigger through amplification to confirmed market reaction.
WHY-ENGINE is explainability-first, rule-based, and deterministic. It explains observed market moves only; it does not predict future prices. If no external trigger is visible, the WHY is framed as market-data correlation. Current coverage: 69%, LIMITED.
The WHY chain connects cause, amplifier, and confirmation in one readable structure.
