🎯 What This Does
This n8n workflow is a comprehensive crypto intelligence system that monitors multiple data sources simultaneously to identify alpha opportunities, whale movements, and emerging trends before they become mainstream. It's like having a team of crypto analysts working 24/7 to spot the next big move.
⚑ Key Features

πŸ‹ Whale Tracking: Monitor VIP wallets and smart money movements in real-time
πŸ“Š Multi-DEX Monitoring: Track price movements, volume, and buy pressure across DEXs
πŸ†• New Token Discovery: Catch tokens within 24 hours of launch
πŸ“± Social Intelligence: Analyze Reddit sentiment and Twitter activity (optional)
πŸ€– AI-Powered Analysis: OpenAI summarizes and prioritizes signals by risk/opportunity
πŸ“¨ Smart Telegram Alerts: Beautifully formatted alerts with actionable insights
πŸ”„ Cross-Source Validation: Higher confidence through multiple data point correlation

πŸš€ What Makes This Special
Unlike basic price alerts, this system provides context and intelligence:

Early Alpha Detection: Spots whale accumulation before social discovery
Risk Assessment: AI categorizes signals by risk level (LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH/EXTREME)
Pattern Recognition: Detects exploits, new listings, partnerships, airdrops
Trend Scoring: Composite scores based on whale activity + social sentiment + DEX data
Smart Filtering: Only sends high-priority alerts to reduce noise
