Bubblepedia: The World's First Dedicated Encyclopedia of Market Bubbles
New reference site documents 400 years of speculative excess — from Dutch Tulip Mania to the AI concentration trade — with live bubble risk indicators and daily market analysis
Sydney, Australia — April 9, 2026
Bubblepedia.org has launched as a comprehensive online encyclopedia tracking the history, warning signs, and current indicators of market bubbles across property, equities, cryptocurrency, and commodities.
The site documents 30 of history's most significant speculative bubbles in detail — from the Dutch Tulip Mania of 1637 to ongoing analyses of Australian property, US technology concentration, and the Chinese Evergrande crisis — alongside a live Global Market Bubble Risk Heat Map scoring 30 global markets on current bubble risk levels.
A Reference Site Built for the Current Moment
Bubblepedia launches at a moment of acute relevance. The Shiller CAPE ratio for US equities sits at 34.2 against a long-run historical average of 16.8. Australian property price-to-income ratios have reached 9.7x in some markets. Crypto Fear & Greed registers Extreme Fear at 17/100. The site's composite bubble risk reading across 30 global markets currently stands at 5.4 out of 10 — rated High Risk.
"Every major financial crisis in history was preceded by the same patterns — rapid price appreciation disconnected from fundamentals, wide participation by inexperienced investors, and a narrative explaining why this time was different," said the site's founder. "Bubblepedia exists to document those patterns with historical precision and track whether they are repeating today."
What Bubblepedia Offers
The Encyclopedia — 30 detailed entries covering every major bubble from 1637 to present. Each entry includes verified historical statistics, a dated timeline of key events, warning signs that were present before the crash, lessons learned, and a current relevance section connecting historical patterns to today's markets. Entries range from the South Sea Bubble of 1720 to the NFT collapse of 2021-2022 and the ongoing Everything Bubble analysis.
Live Bubble Risk Indicators — real-time dashboard tracking the Shiller CAPE ratio, crypto Fear & Greed index, Bitcoin dominance, US 10-year Treasury yield, and total crypto market capitalisation relative to previous cycle highs. Each indicator is contextualised against historical warning levels.
Global Market Bubble Risk Heat Map — a visual grid scoring 30 global markets across property, equities, cryptocurrency, commodities, and bonds on a 1-10 bubble risk scale. Hong Kong property scores 8 (Danger) at a price-to-income ratio of 18.1x. US Tech and AI concentration scores 8 (Danger) on a forward P/E of 28x against an 18x historical average. NFTs score 2 (Fair Value) following a 97% volume collapse from peak.
Daily Market Analysis — four analysis articles published daily connecting current market conditions to historical bubble patterns. The Historical Parallel slot, published each evening, draws explicit comparisons between today's market and a specific encyclopedia entry — rotating through all 30 documented bubbles over the course of a month.
Part of a Growing Financial Intelligence Network
Bubblepedia is the fifth site in an expanding network of automated financial intelligence platforms, each covering a distinct segment of the investment landscape:
CoinHours.com covers live cryptocurrency prices, market intelligence, and the Bitcoin Market Cycle — a proprietary composite indicator tracking where Bitcoin sits in its four-year halving cycle. CoinHours also features dedicated coverage of the Doginals ecosystem on the Dogecoin blockchain.
AustralianPropertyForum.com tracks Australian property market data, RBA rate decisions, suburb analytics, and mortgage calculators — serving buyers, sellers, and investors navigating one of the world's most closely watched property markets.
WorldPropertyForum.com provides global property intelligence across 50+ countries, tracking central bank rates, Golden Visa programs, and international investment opportunities for expats and overseas buyers.
REAStats.com offers Australian real estate agent and agency performance data, suburb statistics, and auction clearance rates — helping property sellers identify the best-performing agents in their area.
Together the five sites publish more than 20 articles daily, aggregate news from over 30 international sources, and cross-reference content across the network to provide investors with a comprehensive view of global financial markets.
WealthWatchPro.com — Coming Soon
The network's sixth site, WealthWatchPro.com, is currently in development and will complete the investment intelligence suite by covering equities, precious metals, bonds, and macro economics. WealthWatchPro will track live ASX 200 and S&P 500 data, gold and silver prices, yield curve movements, and RBA and Fed policy — providing the traditional asset class coverage that completes the network alongside crypto (CoinHours), property (APF and WPF), agent data (REAStats), and bubble history (Bubblepedia).
WealthWatchPro will also feature an Investment Concepts Encyclopedia covering 20 foundational investment topics — from the Shiller CAPE ratio and dividend investing to franking credits and how to buy physical gold in Australia.
Editorial Philosophy
Bubblepedia's editorial approach is deliberately distinct from its sister sites. Where CoinHours and the property sites maintain broadly constructive tones toward their respective asset classes, Bubblepedia takes a risk-aware stance — documenting the consistent patterns of speculative excess across 400 years of financial history without sensationalism.
"The goal is not to predict crashes or promote doom," the founder said. "It is to ensure that the documented history of market bubbles is accessible, accurate, and connected to what is happening in markets right now. The patterns repeat. The names change."
