Verdict

Pick Cryptocurrency Alerting if you need SMS, email, Discord, Slack or webhook delivery, on-chain alerts such as wallet activity and exchange listings, or a developer API. Pick CoinPriceAlert if you want crypto, stocks, gold, oil and forex in one watchlist with push or Telegram delivery, quiet hours, a read-only portfolio, and a price of $2.99 a month rather than $7.99.

Where Cryptocurrency Alerting wins

Nine delivery channels, including SMS, phone calls, email, Discord, Slack and webhooks. CoinPriceAlert delivers to push and Telegram only.
Far more alert types on-chain: exchange listings, wallet transactions, whale transfers, ETH gas and the Bitcoin mempool.
Broader crypto and stock coverage by count, and a developer API for automation.
A longer track record as a web service.

Where CoinPriceAlert wins

Metals, energy and forex in the same watchlist as crypto and stocks; Cryptocurrency Alerting covers neither forex nor metals.
Price: unlimited alerts for $2.99 a month against $7.99, and push plus Telegram on the free plan, where Cryptocurrency Alerting's free tier is email only and capped at 10 notifications.
Quiet hours, bulk market rules, a read-only portfolio with real P&L, and an alert planner built from a year of each coin's candles so the threshold is measured rather than guessed.
It never needs keys: wallet tracking is by public address only.

Which to pick

Choose Cryptocurrency Alerting if you run automations or need SMS and email, or you want listing, whale and gas alerts. Choose CoinPriceAlert if you hold more than crypto, read alerts on your phone or Telegram, and want the threshold set from real numbers. Both have free tiers, so the honest advice is to set one alert on each and see which notification you actually read.

Never miss a move in the markets you follow

Set a price or percentage alert once and get a push notification the moment it triggers — free, with quiet hours so nothing wakes you at 3am.
