Whale Alert is a service for tracking large cryptocurrency transactions in real-time. It provides information about movements on the blockchain, such as transfers of Bitcoin or other assets from whale wallets to exchanges and back.
How to set up Whale Alert:
Using the website:
Go to the official Whale Alert website.
This displays large transactions in real-time, indicating the amount, sender, and recipient.
Telegram channel:
Find the official Whale Alert Telegram bot, for example, @whale_alert.
Subscribe to the channel or set up filters to receive notifications only for the assets you are interested in (BTC, ETH, etc.).
Twitter:
Subscribe to the official Whale Alert account on Twitter.
The account publishes real-time updates on large transactions.
Push notifications:
Some exchanges and apps (e.g., Glassnode or CoinStats) integrate Whale Alert data. You can enable notifications in these apps.
Whale Alert API:
An API is available for developers that can be integrated into their projects. The API documentation allows you to set filters by amounts and types of transactions.
Setup tips:
Set minimum transaction amounts to receive only important notifications.
Sort notifications by types of transactions: deposits to exchanges, withdrawals, or transfers between wallets.
Analyze the data in conjunction with market news for more accurate conclusions.
Whale Alert is great for traders who want to keep an eye on whale activities and use this data for their strategies.
