CoinDesk Markets RSS Feed

CoinDesk Markets RSS Feed is a rss feed from CoinDesk providing crypto data. CoinDesk's public RSS feed publishes the outlet's crypto news and market headlines (BTC/ETH macro, regulation, exchange/ETF flows) in standard RSS 2.0. A Polymarket bot polls it to catch price-moving crypto headlines and use them as event triggers around hourly/daily "will BTC close above $X" markets.
