One of the major advantages of blockchain technology is its transparency. On the blockchain’s public ledger, every action is recorded and accessible to anyone who wants to view and analyze transactions in real time. This creates a new era of openness in trading and investing, where users can easily track the moves of prominent investors, crypto whales, and smart money. As new tools proliferate Web3, especially those with real-time AI-driven capabilities, traders will increasingly use this visibility to fine-tune their investment strategies and discover promising market entry and exit opportunities by following the big money.
What are Crypto Whales?
Crypto whales are individuals or organizations that possess immense cryptocurrency holdings. Although there’s no strict definition for what qualifies as a “whale,” they typically control a substantial share of any given asset’s total supply. These entities are usually either extremely early adapters, or experienced market players with a track record of successful and profitable trades.
It’s crucial to understand that not all crypto whales are the same. Some may hold large amounts of crypto but have a history of poor performance or low returns. Others might be wallets belonging to cryptocurrency exchanges that manage assets on behalf of users. Monitoring these types of wallets may not provide meaningful insights for retail traders with smaller portfolios.
Why is it Important to Track Crypto Whales?
As a crypto investor, identifying your next winning trade can be tricky, but it may be worthwhile to monitor the activities of crypto whales. These large holders often signal upcoming market trends with proven trading strategies, some of them might even be project insiders. If multiple well-known whales begin investing in a particular project, it often signals growing market excitement and potential for strong performance.
Whales can sometimes use their substantial holdings to significantly influence market movements, especially for projects with lower market capitalization. Many savvy investors keep an eye on whale activity, believing these players have advanced insights or access to valuable information. When whales act, their moves often spark a chain reaction as a large number of their followers begin to mirror their trades. Being early to identify these shifts can be the difference between making a profit and loss for certain trades.
How Does Crypto Wallet Tracking Work?
Crypto wallet tracking involves monitoring the balances, transaction history, and overall activity of blockchain wallets. Since blockchain data is publicly available, any wallet address can be tracked. However, efficient tracking for smart money wallets across multiple blockchains often requires the use of dedicated tools.
Why Is Wallet Tracking Valuable?
Whale Watching: Follow the movements of large holders to gain market insights.
Portfolio Management: Monitor asset performance across various wallets and networks
Security Monitoring: Spot suspicious activity or unauthorized transactions, which can be useful to identify potential project rug pulls.
Tax & Accounting: Access detailed transaction history for accurate tax reporting.
Bella AI Agents for Tracking Whales
Bella Protocol is on a mission to help our crypto trading community seamlessly infuse advanced artificial intelligence technology into their investing workflow. To that purpose, in the past 6 months we’ve released two AI trading agents, the Bella Signal Bot and LLM Research Bot, which have both garnered loyal subscriber bases.
One of the newest features that we’ve added to our LLM Research Bot is the ability for any user to simply ask for the top 100 token holders of over 16 supported tokens. As your personal crypto research concierge, the LLM Research Bot can give you the wallet addresses of the top crypto whales for major coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. Users can then track the smart money activity for their subsequent trades. In addition to listing the top 100 token holder addresses, our AI agent can also analyze any wallet. Based on the user’s query, it will accurately outline the transaction count, token holdings, total portfolio value, and first and last transactions of a specific wallet. This means that the LLM Research Bot now goes beyond performing only qualitative analyses, but also functions well as both a smart money identifier and wallet tracker.
Supplementing the research bot’s whale watching capability with the Bella Signal Bot’s real-time AI-driven trading signals can give users double the insights. The Bella Signal Bot is a user-friendly tool built to deliver real-time signals generated by five finely-tuned machine learning models. These models help the AI consistently achieve an average Sharpe ratio of 3.2 while providing long and short signals across more than 19 crypto trading pairs. Both the Signal Bot and Research Bot feature UI directly inside Telegram, which is already considered user-friendly and widely adopted by crypto enthusiasts.
