Cluster attribution

Top entity clusters

Addresses we have attributed to a same-owner cluster via Layer-1 external labels (confidence ≥ 0.95). Layer-3 graph-proximity adds 8 additional behavioral clusters at confidence 0.40.

FAQ

Frequently asked

What counts as an ETH whale transaction?

Any on-chain transaction where the ETH amount or token-equivalent crosses our threshold. We track native-ETH transfers and major ERC-20 movements (USDT, USDC, WETH, stETH, and others) that match institutional-size patterns.

How do you cluster ETH addresses?

Hybrid two-layer approach. Layer 1 uses external entity labels (134 curated, growing) — high precision, narrow coverage. Layer 3 uses transaction-graph proximity with strict safety filters (excludes shared exchange/bridge counterparties). Confidence is exposed in API responses.

How do I get the raw data?

REST API at /v1/eth/whales/recent, /v1/eth/address/<addr>, /v1/eth/cluster/<cluster_id>. Bearer authentication required (Research tier). MCP server exposes the same data to Claude / Cursor / ChatGPT via three ETH-specific tools.

When does the page update?

Every hour at the top of the hour. Live whale-feed lags ~5 minutes behind the chain (block-confirmation + indexer batching). For real-time alerts, use the Bluesky or Twitter feeds.
