There’s a strange moment every trader knows — when the chart hasn’t moved yet, but you can feel something is about to happen. Maybe it’s a post, a wallet trace, a conversation overheard in a space. That early pulse is where edge begins. Rumour.app by AltLayer was created to catch that exact heartbeat — the whispers that come before the world reacts.
It’s not about guessing. It’s about seeing stories form before they explode. It’s about transforming uncertainty into anticipation, and anticipation into action.
The Vision: Listening Before the Crowd
AltLayer built Rumour.app for the traders who live at the front line of information — the ones who don’t wait for confirmation but move when the air changes. The idea is simple yet powerful: collect, rank, and track emerging market narratives in real time.
When a new story begins to surface — a protocol upgrade, an upcoming listing, a private testnet — Rumour.app gathers it, scores its credibility, and pairs it with live market data. That means no more blind chasing. You see the stories growing, and you decide whether to move.
How It Works: Turning Buzz into Data
1. The Rumour Stream
Every second, new fragments of market talk appear. Rumour.app filters that chaos and organizes it into a clear feed. You can see which projects are gaining attention and how fast that attention is building.
2. Trust Meter
Each rumour carries a confidence level. The system uses past accuracy, source reputation, and community validation to tell you what’s noise and what’s worth watching.
3. Live Market Mirror
The platform connects each rumour to its price, liquidity, and volume reaction in real time. You feel the emotion of the market — the way belief turns into momentum.
4. Narrative Tracking
As events like conferences or dev summits unfold, Rumour.app highlights trending whispers straight from the floor — the ideas traders miss until it’s too late.
The People Behind the Pulse
Rumour.app is the creation of AltLayer, the modular infrastructure powerhouse known for its work on rollup scalability and restaking technology. Their team understands that every movement in crypto starts with an idea, and every idea spreads through a network of believers long before charts reflect it. Rumour.app captures that invisible journey.

Why It Resonates Emotionally
Rumour.app touches something deeply human. Every trader has felt that spark — that split second where instinct whispers before proof arrives. It’s the pulse that makes markets alive.
With Rumour.app, that feeling is no longer random. It becomes measurable, visible, and actionable. You can trust your intuition, backed by a system that helps you read the crowd’s subconscious before the crowd even knows it’s thinking.
The Real-World Use
Narrative Scouts find themes forming early and position themselves before the herd.
Momentum Traders use data from the live feed to confirm when sentiment becomes reality.
Event Followers capture alpha from the places where future moves are born.
It’s not about luck. It’s about alignment — between story, sentiment, and market motion.
The Caution
Rumours can still mislead. Some will fade, others will evolve in unexpected directions. But that’s the beauty of this approach. You’re not chasing certainty — you’re studying how belief forms and breaks. It’s trading the psychology of markets, not just their prices.
The Future
AltLayer plans to expand Rumour.app with smarter AI filters, cross-chain integrations, and personalized alert systems that detect emotional shifts before they become visible trends. Over time, it aims to become the ultimate early-warning system for narrative-driven traders.
The Takeaway
Rumour.app is more than a platform — it’s a new trading sense. It listens where others talk. It feels before others see. It’s the bridge between emotion and execution.
