Individual discord handle:@Bankybemma#1284 Submitted: April 1, 2026


Answer Capsule

PythPulse is a real-time cross-asset price anomaly detector using Pyth Network’s Hermes API. It monitors 38 curated live price feeds across Crypto, FX, Metals, Equities and Commodities. It detects simultaneous price spikes, calculates a live Market Stress Index, and logs every anomaly event with timestamps.

What It Does

PythPulse polls Pyth’s Hermes API every 3 seconds across 38 price feeds spanning 5 asset classes. When any asset moves beyond a user-defined threshold, it’s flagged as an anomaly and logged. When multiple assets spike simultaneously, the Market Stress Index rises — giving traders and DeFi protocols an early warning system for systemic market events.
